What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role building secure, scalable financial platforms with event-driven architecture. I want to own Kafka-based messaging, resilience, and CI/CD automation—while partnering with teams that value code quality and operational excellence.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience in Banking, Trade Finance, and Payment Modernization projects. I architect and build secure, highly available, event-driven platforms—designing Kafka-based messaging solutions, custom Avro transformations, and asynchronous publishing architectures that handle real-time transactions across multiple application groups.

I’m hands-on with secure event pipelines using HeraKms encryption/decryption, plus resilience engineering through infrastructure and database resiliency testing. I also focus on operational excellence—integrating Splunk, Dynatrace, Grafana, AWS Cortex, and Prometheus-based monitoring, automating CI/CD with Jules and Spinnaker for blue/green AWS deployments, and maintaining rigorous code quality with SonarQube and strong test coverage.
