At Amazon Advertising, I build sales-planning products used by more than 2,000 users across 30+ sales teams. I helped reduce a two-month offline file-processing workflow to one week while supporting 99.95% availability and over 500 TPS.

I build secure Lambda APIs behind AWS WAF and API Gateway, DynamoDB-backed services, OpenSearch indices, and React/TypeScript interfaces. My work includes authentication and authorization, permissions delegation, finance recommendations, and goal management with automated cascading through AWS Step Functions.

Previously at Openlink Financial, I delivered high-performance trading solutions and RESTful services for the Findur platform using Java, C++, FIX, Spring Boot, and Apache CXF. These projects improved operational efficiency by 15%, reduced trade-execution latency by 20%, and supported secure exchange of more than one million daily transactions.

I've also led global onboarding and post-trade optimization projects, built accounting solutions for RBC, and developed KPI analytics applications at New York University. I enjoy applying cloud architecture, data analysis, and user-focused design to complex financial and sales workflows.
