AWS Solutions Architect at EMMY LOGISTICS who architected a fleet-tracking platform sustaining 43M messages monthly with 0% loss.
What I'm looking for
At EMMY LOGISTICS, I architected an AWS IoT fleet-tracking platform using MQTT QoS1 and a decoupled event-driven design. It sustained 43M messages per month at 0% loss, with one-second latency, and used offline queuing and replay to handle network blackspots.
For FINTECH, I architected a secure wallet and agency banking platform with NDPA data residency controls. The platform cut payment failures from 30% to 0%, achieved 99.95% uptime, and passed a CBN audit.
At CITEXCEL, I provisioned AWS infrastructure with Terraform, automated delivery pipelines, and built a serverless recipe application using Amazon Bedrock. My work also includes cloud security, incident response automation, WordPress hardening, and web application penetration testing.
