Backend Engineer with a knack for building and optimizing high-traffic microservices and APIs. I’ve led teams to modernize systems at HSBC using Java, Spring Boot, and I’m well-versed in cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. My experience also includes working with FastAPI, Node.js, Docker, and Kubernetes. Recently, I’ve been diving into Go and distributed systems to further expand my skill set.
I’m on the lookout for exciting backend roles where I can take on new challenges and drive innovation.
