Backend Software Engineer
Engineered Kafka-based contact synchronization pipelines with offset tracking, fault-tolerant retries, 250-contact batches, and zero message loss across more than 500,000 contacts. Built Go services for automation integrations and communications workflows, including multi-provider OAuth 2.0 credential isolation through AWS Secrets Manager.
- Twilio number provisioning workflows
- Bidirectional CRM event synchronization
- Kubernetes cloud-native deployments
- Interface-based integration adapters
Lead Software Engineer
Builds high-load Go backend services around PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, and gRPC, with distributed-system designs covering failure handling, idempotency, and back-pressure. Applies domain-driven service boundaries and contract-first APIs to keep event-driven platforms maintainable as throughput and operational complexity increase.
- Solidity smart-contract development
- Clean architecture and bounded contexts
- Kafka-based asynchronous processing
- gRPC API contract design
Senior Product Engineer
Optimized FIX trading infrastructure by increasing tested peak throughput from approximately 30 to 250 trades per second, achieving 100 ms p50 and 200 ms p95 from Kafka event to network write. Designed an event-driven netting pipeline that ingests SFTP reports, deduplicates and validates records, and aggregates transactions by instrument.
- Adaptive batching for FIX workloads
- FIX library modifications
- Inbox/outbox database optimization
- Instrument-level settlement fault isolation
Software Engineer
Architected distributed systems with gRPC and REST interfaces for high-throughput data processing. Designed database schemas and optimized SQL queries for large-scale applications.
