What I'm looking for

I seek senior technical leadership or hands-on development roles where I can drive architecture, mentor teams, and build customer-facing fintech or healthtech products.

I am a software developer and entrepreneur focused on building resilient web and mobile products for finance and health sectors. I combine hands-on engineering with product-minded leadership to deliver client-facing systems that scale.

At Investec I have served multiple business units executing the NextJS OnePlace initiative to unify client experiences across the bank, including Angular Banking, Wealth & Investment, My Investments, VAS, Rewards and Life. My responsibilities have spanned development of the transactional Investec Online site and the Investec Private Client app, driving technology and SQL architecture roadmaps and acting as team lead; I have worked on Investec’s Private Client app on AWS for the past three years.

As CTO and co‑founder at Contro I helped build a telemedicine platform connecting patients with doctors, and earlier developer roles at CXT, 8Bit-Platoon, First Technology and Aesir/Interfil sharpened my frontend and backend expertise. I prioritize pragmatic architecture, clear roadmaps and mentoring teams to deliver measured business value.
