What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and build cloud-native backend platforms for mobility, payments, or applied AI, combining hands-on Java/Kotlin engineering with distributed-team leadership, scalable architecture, and end-to-end product delivery.

I've led architecture and delivery for Kubapay, a multi-tenant mobility and payments SaaS platform running 40+ Spring Boot and Kotlin microservices for live rides, payments, and operations.

At Provility Software Solutions, I lead and mentor distributed teams of 8–12 engineers, improving delivery predictability by approximately 30%. I've reduced release time to under two hours with AWS EKS, Docker, Helm, and GitHub Actions, while improving transactional performance and production observability.

I also build applied AI products, including MemoMind, Robogebra AI, and UmarTransit-1B—a domain-specific transit model fine-tuned from public GTFS data and published with a deployed demo.
