Senior Backend Engineer at Sporty Group building high-throughput payment and KYC systems for iGaming.

Italy

Message

At Sporty Group, I design Java and Spring Boot microservices for iGaming, including secure payment gateway integrations, transaction flows, and KYC checks.

As founder and developer of AskGecko, I built an embeddable AI chat SaaS that answers website visitors using each site’s own content. Its multi-tenant Spring Boot backend supports RAG ingestion, embeddings, vector search, Stripe billing, and usage metering.

At Finative, I designed event-driven backend services and REST APIs, managed AWS infrastructure, and deployed microservices with Docker and Kubernetes. I also used load testing to improve performance and reliability.

Earlier, I worked on backend and Adobe Experience Manager projects at Deloitte Digital, building Java and Spring Boot integrations for clients including John Lewis (Waitrose). At IrisCube Reply, I developed banking and payments services, and at Wiplen srls, I developed an Android app for a local-business cashback platform.
