What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product/technical leadership role in fintech or enterprise software where I can drive cloud-native, microservices-based solutions, mentor teams, and align product vision with technical delivery in an Agile, collaborative environment.

I am a Product Owner and Technical Leader with 20+ years in banking, financial services, and telecom, delivering enterprise-grade, cloud-native solutions that scale. I led modernization efforts converting legacy monoliths into Spring Boot microservices, implemented Kafka-based event processing, and architected compliance-ready trade finance and virtual account platforms. I consistently align product vision with technical execution to meet SLAs and regulatory requirements for Tier-1 clients.

I bridge stakeholder needs and engineering delivery through Agile practices, CI/CD pipelines, and hands-on mentoring of cross-functional teams. I drive measurable outcomes by building secure APIs, resilient integrations, and high-performance systems.
