What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build practical, dependable engineering improvements with cross-functional teams, especially in payment systems, AI-driven automation, production reliability, and CI/CD.

At Visa, I modernize payment processing and client interface systems by architecting enterprise UI automation with Playwright MCP, Claude Code, and Agentic AI. I build reusable automation components, validate Gateway Services, and provide code-level production support to strengthen release confidence.

Previously at Visa, I designed test strategies for Gateway Services and VisaNet monitoring, expanding automated coverage with Jenkins, Cucumber, and Selenium while improving defect resolution across engineering teams.

Earlier, I developed Java and Spring-based services for Fannie Mae through CGI, including REST microservices, Kafka streaming, and application integrations. I also delivered customer-specific modules and enhancements for Model N's HighTech application.
