Senior Software Engineer at Mainstream Movement Ltd building backend services and integrations for client workflows.

At Mainstream Movement Ltd, I build backend services for client delivery programs, connecting case data and workflow routing with external partner systems. I’ve improved onboarding validation, error handling, and service observability.

At BNP Paribas, I built payment validation and transaction status flows, and developed reconciliation jobs that reduced manual investigation work. I also introduced event processing to help downstream systems react without tight service coupling.

Earlier, I built supply chain and order workflow services at Bayer and backend services for orders, returns, and shipping at FARFETCH. Across these products, I worked on integrations, event flows, and dependable data handling for operational and customer-facing systems.
