At Systems Ltd, I serve as an Application Architect for a Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company and as a Solutions Architect for a major U.S. specialty apparel group. I also contribute to the Architecture Review Board and led development of machine-learning training and inference modules for a digital asset management platform.

At Global Share, I was the primary developer for SwipBox Infinity’s end-user and factory mobile apps, and contributed to its admin portal. I also served as the primary developer of Egento, a cloud-based financial system with a module builder.

Earlier, I developed software spanning mobile and web products, telecom systems, printers, scanners, and smartphone security solutions. At Concurrent Systems, I led a team of six developers and contributed to telecom features for Mobilink, Telstra, and Ooredoo.
