@opeoluwa
Solution-driven software engineer specializing in scalable backend systems, integrations, and production reliability.
What I'm looking for
I am a solution-driven software engineer with over four years of experience building and supporting scalable backend systems, APIs, and integrations for financial and trade platforms. I combine Java Spring Boot, containerization, and orchestration to deliver reliable production services and measurable business impact.
In leadership and individual-contributor roles, I have led technical support teams, improved client SLAs, eliminated process duplication via middleware, and deployed microservices on Kubernetes to achieve high uptime and reduced redundant processing. I have hands-on experience with database design, large-scale data migrations, reporting automation, and incident ownership.
I prioritize collaboration, root-cause problem-solving, and delivering quantifiable outcomes, from recovering hundreds of thousands of records and migrating millions of records to automating regulatory reports and improving processing performance across systems.
