Senior full stack engineer building fail-safe fintech and AI distributed systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Full Stack Engineer designing and delivering end-to-end payment systems, real-time data platforms, and marketplace products. At WeiBlocks, I led a team of 4 engineers to ship Escrowly, a Kafka-based microservices escrow platform with transactional outbox, a double-entry ledger, and AWS KMS-encrypted wallet infrastructure.
I build systems that fail safely and scale predictably, from zero-loss payment guarantees to production recovery for failed event delivery. I’ve also engineered real-time aggregation across 20+ exchanges, and built multi-agent AI platforms with LLM orchestration, intelligent model routing, and RAG-style research pipelines—reducing manual workflows from ~6 hours/week to under 15 minutes.
