What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead collaborative teams solving long-lasting, real-world problems through pragmatic architecture, strong engineering quality, mentoring, and continuous improvement.

At Standard Chartered Bank, I lead 15+ engineers delivering retail payment fraud-risk applications across multiple countries. I own requirements, solution design, architecture governance, implementation, deployment, and production support, reducing release effort from two days to four hours and production incidents by 40%.

I've built and modernized enterprise applications for Bank of America, Fidelity Investments, EPAM Systems, Innominds, and Cognizant across payments, banking, healthcare insurance, and construction. My work spans Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, microservices, Oracle, messaging, automated testing, performance tuning, and secure coding.

I value practical, long-lasting solutions, team collaboration, mentoring, and high engineering standards. I use AI-assisted development tools alongside quality practices to help teams deliver dependable software.
