What I'm looking for
As a Senior Software Engineer with 9 years of experience, I have developed and maintained five high-performance web applications, showcasing my ability to lead cross-functional teams and deliver complex projects on time and within budget. My journey in software engineering has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a passion for continuous improvement.
At Turing, I provided technical leadership in architecting and implementing complex systems, successfully migrating a legacy B2B e-commerce platform to a microservices architecture. My efforts in enhancing transaction speeds and reliability through innovative solutions like instant bank verification with Stripe have significantly improved customer experiences. I have also built a video analytics platform from scratch, demonstrating my proficiency in modern technologies such as Next.js, Node, and AWS Serverless.
My previous role at Method allowed me to further hone my skills in both front-end and back-end technologies, where I contributed to the development of an e-Learning SaaS platform and an online patient booking system. My focus on quality and efficiency has consistently led to improved user experiences and increased engagement. I am dedicated to fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous improvement within my teams, resulting in enhanced productivity and reduced bug resolution times.
