What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer with strong experience building high-volume, event-driven systems for financial services. I lead cross-functional teams to design and deliver REST and Kafka-based architectures, driving measurable business impact and regulatory compliance.
At Morgan Stanley I led development of an INR–USD FX trading platform using Java, Spring Boot, Docker and Kafka, producing intraday trade feeds and EOD reports that supported compliance, finance, and RBI reporting and generated significant incremental revenue. I have built batch pipelines, reconciliation flows and workflow-driven review/approval services in collaboration with business and compliance stakeholders.
My background includes backend and microservices development across multiple banks and platforms, Android and web application projects, and experience at Tata Consultancy Services and ThoughtWorks internship work. I prioritize reliable, scalable design, automation of reporting, and clear communication across teams to accelerate delivery.
