Software Development Engineer III at GoCardless, delivering bank verification and onboarding systems that reduce fraud.

United Kingdom
Message

At GoCardless, I led the delivery of a bank account verification system as part of a company-wide platform rebuild, coordinating two engineering squads and completing the work 30% faster than estimated. I also designed a reusable TanStack Forms architecture for future onboarding and verification flows.

As a Software Development Engineer II at GoCardless, I led an account verification feature that increased the 14-day verification rate by 8.7% and reduced fraud. I also contributed to identity verification checks that reduced fraud rates by 29.2% and fraud exposure by 27.2%.

At TrueLayer, I owned product features from requirements breakdown through production release and added integration and end-to-end tests to strengthen codebase security. Earlier, I designed and built an ML-powered fitness application from concept to production, including real-time pose detection with TensorFlow.js.
