What I'm looking for

I’m open to Lead / Principal Engineer and architecture-oriented roles.

At Mastercard, I led design and development of Community Pass, enhancing financial inclusion for underserved communities. I architected Java, Spring Boot, and Kafka microservices supporting a global user base of ~7 million.

I also developed a centralized reporting platform to improve operational decision-making and deliver actionable insights. Earlier, at Mastercard Payment Gateway Services through EPAM Systems, I developed a Java and Spring Boot backend with resilient microservices and secure webhook handling.

Across FinTech, payments, mortgage processing, and telecom, I’ve developed backend platforms and data-intensive systems. I’m currently working on large-scale data pipelines, event-driven systems, and backend platforms used by global financial institutions.
