What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that values innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated Software Engineer with a strong background in building and consuming RESTful web services. My experience spans several years, during which I have honed my skills in Java, Spring Boot, and various relational databases including Oracle PL/SQL and MySQL. I pride myself on being a supportive and enthusiastic team player, always striving to streamline processes and resolve project issues efficiently.

At Etranzact International PLC, I have played a pivotal role in developing the Etranzact Instant Transfer Service, which allows clients to perform various banking transactions seamlessly. My contributions also include the design and implementation of a fraud detection system using microservice architecture, showcasing my ability to innovate and enhance existing software solutions. My previous role at Neptune Software Limited further solidified my expertise in web service integration and database management, where I successfully created dynamic pages for a Human Capital Management System and integrated multiple payment gateways.
