What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior role where I can own architecture and deliver production-grade, cloud-native systems in FinTech/HealthTech—leading teams, integrating AI/LLM automation and fraud detection, and improving measurable performance and reliability.

I’m a results-driven Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack Developer, FinTech Expert, and Tech Lead with 6+ years of experience (career commencing 2021) architecting and delivering enterprise-scale distributed systems across FinTech, HealthTech, SaaS, IoT, and Web3. I specialize in distributed systems & system design—scalable, cloud-native architecture, high-availability systems, and AI & automation (LLMs)—with deep expertise in Node.js, Python, Laravel, React.js, and TypeScript. I’ve consistently led end-to-end architecture and production delivery, including integrations trusted by 500K+ end users.

Most recently, as Tech Team Lead & Principal Engineer at Astra Protocol, I owned architecture across Astra KYC, Astra Exchange, DeFi Wallet, ChatX, and Intelliz IoT, delivering scalable multi-tenant SaaS systems with 150+ REST APIs and implementing multi-DEX non-custodial DeFi wallet capabilities. I integrated AI/ML, LLM chatbot automation, and fraud detection achieving 95%+ accuracy using InsightFace, Ollama, LangChain, OpenAI, and vector retrieval, while also migrating IoT pipelines from Rancher Kubernetes to AWS ECS/S3. Previously, I led Hyperledger Fabric infrastructure at One Health Global Technologies for multi-country healthcare FinTech, improved latency by 40% with high-throughput APIs at Athelas (99.9% uptime SLA), and drove backend standards while mentoring teams at ibex. I bring a strong product-and-architecture mindset focused on reliability, performance, security, and measurable outcomes.
