What I'm looking for

I seek full-stack or backend roles in fintech-focused teams where I can lead scalable microservices, improve security and observability, and mentor engineers.

I am a software engineer with strong full-stack expertise in building scalable fintech and enterprise applications. I combine frontend frameworks like React/Next.js and Blazor with backend technologies such as Spring Boot and ASP.NET Core to deliver production-ready systems.

At Interswitch I led frontend design systems, improved test coverage from 43% to 100%, and contributed to product deliveries that increased revenue by 27%. I also helped onboard new hires and served on a competency-based frontend interview panel.

My projects include a real-time finance dashboard integrating Plaid, a resilient inventory microservice using Kafka/Zookeeper, and a pension KYC system with face verification. I prioritize security, observability, and performance, having improved application performance by 20% and security posture by 30%.

I bring a pragmatic, documentation-driven approach to development and deployment, with hands-on experience in Docker, CI/CD, cloud services, and technical documentation to accelerate client onboarding and reduce delivery time.
