Backend Software Engineer at a fintech trading technology company; shipped an MT5 copy-trading platform serving hundreds of concurrent users.
What I'm looking for
At a fintech trading technology company, I architected a real-time signal pipeline for a multi-tenant MT5 copy-trading platform. It brought end-to-end trade execution under one second and supported hundreds of concurrent users.
As a freelance software engineer, I built cogni-fund, my live investment analytics product for web, iOS, and Android. Its data pipeline collects and repairs market data, while its OpenAI assistant uses tool calling, RAG, and checks against source data.
For cogni-fund, I also built an OCR pipeline that extracts fund holdings from KAP reports and powers portfolio analytics. The product runs with Docker Compose on a Debian server.
At INOSAS, I developed enterprise systems for public-sector clients, delivered ERP modules with PHP and CodeIgniter, and built a PWA inventory app. I also wrote unit and architecture tests for the Stripe payments module of the DroneHub client project.
