Designing reliable, low-latency backend systems for financial platforms.

Software Engineer with 3+ years in FinTech and distributed backend systems, focused on high-throughput, low-latency services.

I build Java microservices, event-driven systems, and resilient platforms for production environments where correctness, observability, and performance matter.

Core focus: distributed systems, payments, observability, and platform engineering.

Tech keywords: Java · Quarkus · Spring Boot · Kafka · PostgreSQL · Redis · Docker · ELK

• 🏗️ Design and ship low-latency microservices using Java, Quarkus, and Spring Boot
• ⚡ Build event-driven systems with Kafka, Redis, PostgreSQL, and ELK
• 🎯 Focus on clean architecture, observability, and scalability
• 🚀 Build open-source developer tools and automation

• Reduced API response times from ~300ms to ~20ms using Redis-based caching
• Built and maintained 20+ backend services across digital banking channels
• Integrated RAAST real-time payments and Kafka-based workflows
• Set up ELK observability for proactive incident response
