Full-stack FinTech software engineer building low-latency, cloud-native systems.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a Full Stack Web Developer and Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience building scalable web applications and cloud-native FinTech solutions. I apply Java, JavaScript, Node.js, React, Laravel, and AWS/DevOps to design low-latency, high-throughput systems and complex transaction workflows.
I have architected migrations from monoliths to microservices and designed event-driven, low-latency APIs for high-concurrency enterprise workloads. I’ve led development of AI-driven assessment platforms and LLM-powered workflows, delivering automated scoring, adaptive question generation, and sentiment analysis for global users.
My work in FinTech includes end-to-end design of options and futures trading interfaces, cron/event-driven pipelines, and broker-ready order workflows that improved reliability and throughput. I also built ETL and data workflows on AWS using Glue, Lambda, and Step Functions to optimize analytics and AI dashboards.
I focus on performance optimization, cost-conscious cloud architecture, observability, and maintainability. I seek to contribute hands-on engineering, systems design, and DevOps expertise to cross-functional product teams building mission-critical, low-latency financial and AI products.
