What I'm looking for

I’m looking to continue building business-critical backend and cloud-native systems, while applying RAG, vector databases, Spring AI, and agentic AI to enterprise applications.

At Danske Bank, I build and maintain Java 17/21 Spring Boot microservices for business-critical financial workflows. I’ve delivered greenfield credit simulation, loan application registration, and centralized error-service solutions as a sole or primary contributor.

I work across distributed services and teams to turn complex lending requirements into reliable domain logic, REST APIs, integrations, validation rules, and production-ready releases. My work includes Azure CI/CD, Terraform-managed infrastructure, MSSQL, Flyway, Redis, RabbitMQ, and cross-squad integration testing.

Before Danske Bank, I independently delivered partner integrations and greenfield backend services at AutoRemind, including production-ready Dentrix and Dentally integrations. At PatientSky, I developed healthcare platform APIs and event-driven workflows using Java, Dropwizard, Elasticsearch, Axon Framework, and MariaDB.

I bring more than 20 years of engineering experience across finance, healthcare, research, telecom, and embedded systems. I’m expanding my backend work into AI applications, focusing on RAG, vector databases, Spring AI, and agentic AI for enterprise systems.
