I am a seasoned software engineering professional with 8+ years of experience in senior roles, specializing in building scalable, high-throughput distributed systems. My expertise spans microservices architecture, backend engineering, frontend development, and system design, with strong experience in API-driven platforms, external system integrations, and mobile application integrations. I bring an ownership-driven mindset, with experience in leading teams, mentoring engineers, and driving Agile delivery, while working closely with stakeholders to translate business requirements into robust, scalable solutions. I add value by improving system performance, strengthening engineering practices, reducing technical debt, and aligning technology decisions with business outcomes. I recently completed a Master of Information Technology (Software Engineering) at the University of Sydney, strengthening my capabilities in cloud-native and AI-enabled systems, enabling delivery of production-grade, scalable, and future-ready solutions.
Led modernization of legacy Custody Management systems for clients, transforming Welfare Management, Reception & Induction, and Property modules into a scalable AI enabled, modular(microservice architecture) and cloud-native platform. Built an AI-enabled Welfare Management system using RAG, supporting early detection of mental health risks through intelligent workflows, behavioural analysis, and automated reporting. Led development/integration of Welfare Check microservices with facial recognition, improving monitoring accuracy, compliance, and operational safety. Re-engineered Incident Management, Reporting, and Logging modules, integrating legacy capabilities with modern distributed systems and analytics pipelines for downstream intelligence use. Designed and implemented a microservices-based system using RESTful API design, built for high throughput and scalability, applying modern engineering principles including clean code, resilience, observability, and monitoring. Contributed to architecture design and delivered services using Spring Framework, modern Java, Kafka, PostgreSQL/MongoDB, and AWS (Fargate, ECS, EC2, S3), integrating third-party AI tools (e.g., Ollama and open AI). Optimized systems for high-throughput, scalability, and fault tolerance, while applying CI/CD and Agile practices to ensure reliability, performance, and continuous delivery.
Led architecture and product design for a fintech trading platform, transforming early-stage concepts into a scalable, investor-ready solution aligned with business and regulatory goals. Designed and validated key capabilities through proof-of-concepts (PoCs), covering trading workflows, backend services, and system integrations to de-risk product decisions. Participated in shaping the go-to-market strategy and product engineering roadmap, defining phased delivery (MVP → advanced features) and a microservices-based architecture for scalable execution. Collaborated with executives and investors across Dubai, Bahrain, and Sydney, contributing to technical strategy, product positioning, and investment discussions. Contributed to financial modelling and profitability analysis, aligning technical feasibility with revenue projections, cost structures, and investment planning. Led and mentored developers while acting as a bridge between business and engineering, translating requirements into robust technical solutions and ensuring high-quality delivery.
