Senior Java Developer at Nedbank building card onboarding and fraud assessment microservices.

At Nedbank, I lead the Forex Project and Credit Card Onboarding Application. I designed and developed microservices and RESTful APIs for card onboarding and fraud assessment systems.

At Standard Bank, I built payment service APIs and led a migration from on-premise to cloud platforms. Earlier, at Discovery Health Systems, I led development of RUNA, migrating a legacy health management system to a microservices-based solution.

Across my work, I've developed banking, health, and financial systems, including Enterprise Teller Solutions at First National Bank (FNB) and a CSD project for Kenya at Dynamic Visual Solutions (DVT). I hold a BSc Honours in Computer Science and certifications including PMP and AWS Certified Developer – Associate.
