What I'm looking for

I seek backend- or platform-focused roles where I can architect scalable microservices, improve CI/CD and reliability, mentor engineers, and deliver secure fintech systems with measurable performance and stability improvements.

I am a Senior Java engineer with 9+ years building scalable fintech and regtech platforms, specializing in Java, Spring Boot, microservices, and PostgreSQL. I have led backend teams, architected microservices that cut API response times by 45%, and implemented CI/CD pipelines that reduced deployment time from two hours to 15 minutes.

I focus on reliable, maintainable systems—optimizing databases, introducing TDD practices to achieve 85% coverage, and improving production stability by reducing incidents 35%. I mentor engineers, drive code-quality improvements, and take ownership of payment processing and high-throughput services that serve large user bases.
