What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can lead teams, improve system architecture, implement observability and payments, and mentor engineers in a growth-focused, pragmatic environment.

I am a Senior Backend Developer and Team Lead with a strong STEM background and deep fintech experience, focused on PHP development across monolith and microservice architectures. I design and consume RESTful APIs, lead engineering teams, perform code reviews, and maintain project standards while driving performance, observability, and reliability improvements.

My career highlights include re-engineering cross-service communication, refactoring services to Symfony native solutions, introducing business metrics and alerting, extracting functionality into microservices, and delivering multiple payment gateway integrations. I mentor engineers, introduce static checks and profiling, and consult on IT solutions and integrations to align technical work with business goals.
