Led the end-to-end architecture and implementation of a Financial AI Platform, delivering generative AI capabilities for banking use cases under strict requirements for security, data governance, and regulatory compliance. Took ownership of technical decision-making across the full AI lifecycle, from proof-of-concept evaluation and production readiness assessment to the design of a scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient platform operating under real-world constraints.

Through research and development conducted as part of this initiative, invented and filed two patents covering novel AI technologies for enterprise and financial use cases, translating applied research outcomes into protected intellectual property.

In parallel, drove the exploration and adoption of generative AI in financial services through close collaboration with Silicon Valley startups and major technology vendors. Led joint proof-of-concept initiatives, evaluated emerging AI technologies, and converted innovative capabilities into enterprise-ready solutions. Represented the organization at global industry events such as Oracle AI World, presenting approaches to applying AI in financial services, and contributed to internal AI enablement by leading technical workshops and facilitating cross-team knowledge sharing.

Served as a Senior Software Engineer, taking on Tech Lead and Architect roles in the development of new digital services for the insurance domain. Led multiple greenfield initiatives, including a native mobile application and a mobile web application, both recognized as among the first digital services of their kind within the organization.

Owned end-to-end delivery across the full development lifecycle, including requirements definition, architecture design, technology selection, development, testing, and release. In addition to hands-on engineering, led architectural decision-making, resolved complex technical challenges, and promoted development standardization across teams.

Leveraged experience as a Certified Scrum Master to support the adoption of Scrum-based development practices while coordinating effectively with waterfall-based teams in hybrid delivery environments. Worked closely with Product Owners and Scrum Masters, contributing not only from a technical perspective but also by shaping service specifications with a strong emphasis on customer experience (UX).

Participated as a Software Engineer in the development of a large-scale mobile application for a financial institution, responsible for mission-critical transaction processing. Contributed across the full service lifecycle, including requirements definition, system design, development, testing, release, and post-release operations.

Given the critical nature of financial transactions, the service required high availability and strong consistency. To meet these requirements, a system was designed and built on AWS using ECS, DynamoDB, and Amazon Aurora. Took primary responsibility for infrastructure design and implementation, covering IAM, databases, APIs, networking, batch processing, and data analytics architecture. The infrastructure was implemented using Terraform as Infrastructure as Code (IaC).

In addition, assumed a project management role within a waterfall development framework, managing the overall schedule and conducting deliverable reviews. The project was completed on schedule and evolved into a production service used by over one million users, achieving stable operations with no major service outages. The work received external recognition, including the AWS Top Engineer award for these contributions.
