## About

```text
At FriendnPal, I lead technical strategy and web product delivery. I grew the engineering team from 2 to 8 developers and built real-time communication features and an AI-powered mental health companion.

I architected ledger and API systems at FriendnPal, using double-entry principles and PostgreSQL row-level locking to prevent race conditions. I also introduced agile frameworks and sprint planning structures that cut delivery timelines by 30%.

At Greensol, I oversaw technical execution and designed cloud infrastructure for 99.9% uptime. Earlier, at Cane Capital Integrated Inv, I engineered APIs for wealth management dashboards and integrated third-party services, including payment gateways and real-time feeds.
