What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own complex backend integrations and shipping plans, lead engineering execution, and build secure, customer-impacting products with strong collaboration and clear accountability.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer and Technical Owner building secure, scalable crypto systems. At CoinFlip, I spearheaded end-to-end architecture and development of an on-custodial cryptocurrency web application and Chrome extension, launching to market within a year.

I lead high-performing teams and drive technical ownership across complex integrations. I designed and implemented a cutting-edge multi-chain crypto SDK to improve interoperability, and I oversaw integrations for Metrics, KYC verification, ACH and card transactions, plus SMS and Email notifications—supporting seamless user experiences and industry-standard compliance.

Previously at JPMorgan Chase, I worked as an Associate Software Engineer (promoted in 2019), leading development and maintenance of critical internal applications. I built reactive UIs in React with microservices, created multi-functional NPM libraries, contributed to an action-based API framework to improve performance, and helped deliver work that earned the PWM WealthTech Award of 2022 for best CRM applications.
