Summary

Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years in global fintech and travel, working from frontend platforms to data pipelines. I build telemetry, developer tooling and full-stack systems, and I like closing the gap between a fast interface and a resilient backend.

    • Designed schema-driven, Git-backed configuration so regulatory updates ship without code deployments.

    • Built automated testing infrastructure and self-service operational tools that removed routine manual interventions.
