What I'm looking for

I'm open to relocation and visa sponsorship, and eager to contribute to distributed systems at Monzo.

I've built production services for BREVYA, Caveo, and NYC Bank, improving payment reliability, supporting high-volume banking workloads, and delivering real-time platforms. My work spans Go, C#, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, and message-driven architectures.

At Caveo, I improved payment success by 15% through end-to-end telemetry and audit records, and built a KYC validation pipeline processing around 1,000 new users monthly at a 98% validation rate. I also design resilient systems with Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS/SNS, Azure Service Bus, Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, CI/CD, caching, failover, and observability.
