👋 I’m a Principal Software Engineer and Engineering Leader with 10+ years of experience building and scaling high-impact digital platforms across Fintech, Insurtech, and IoT. I specialize in designing secure, high-availability distributed systems where performance, reliability, and data integrity are non-negotiable. My expertise sits at the intersection of transactional financial technology, real-time event-driven architectures, and applied AI. I bridge the gap between business strategy and deep technical execution, leading engineering teams to turn early-stage concepts into enterprise-grade realities. 🔧 What I Do Best System Architecture: Design resilient distributed platforms using Go, TypeScript, Python, and Java. Event-Driven Systems: Build real-time streaming architectures via Kafka/MQTT to process massive data flows. Payment Infrastructure: Architect high-throughput financial pipelines, strict reconciliation, and bank/mobile money APIs. Applied AI: Integrate LLMs and ML models to turn raw data into real-time operational insights. Technical Leadership: Lead engineering teams from idea → architecture → production while mentoring talent. Core Stack: Go, JS/TS, Python, Java | AWS, GCP | Node.js, Spring Boot, Flask, Express | React, React Native| Kafka, MQTT | MongoDB, MySQL. 🚀 Selected Impact Fintech (Boya): Architected high-throughput payment systems, real-time banking APIs, and a bulk disbursements engine for enterprise clients. Built audit-ready reconciliation pipelines ensuring absolute financial accuracy. Mobility & AI (Carchain): Designed an event-driven platform processing 2M+ daily vehicle telemetry events via MQTT/Kafka. Integrated OpenAI models to convert raw CAN data into predictive maintenance insights, sharply reducing fleet downtime. Insurtech & Telematics (AiCare & APA Insurance): Led engineering for IoT/ML telematics (pay-as-you-drive). Modernized legacy workflows for APA Insurance by building a digital claims platform and a life insurance quote engine. Startup Execution (Naya Labs): Partnered with 7+ startups to ship production-ready web/mobile products, reducing average time-to-market by 30%. 🧠 Engineering Philosophy I approach engineering with a dual product and systems mindset. Technical excellence matters, but only when mapped to clear business impact. I focus on clean abstractions, minimizing technical debt, and building architectures that scale and last. 🤝 Let's Connect I am open to Principal/Staff-level roles, technical leadership opportunities, and impactful collaborations in fintech, AI, and distributed systems.…👋 I’m a Principal Software Engineer and Engineering Leader with 10+ years of experience building and scaling high-impact digital platforms across Fintech, Insurtech, and IoT.
