About

I’m a backend engineer with experience building production systems at both Amazon and a fintech startup (Finfactor). At Finfactor, I build fintech platforms from scratch for loan underwriting and monitoring, designing microservice-based systems that process financial data from multiple sources and generate analysis reports used by lending institutions. Previously at Amazon, I worked on Tier-1 backend services supporting millions of customers, contributing to improvements in system scalability and reliability. Tech stack: Java, Spring Boot, Quarkus, Kafka, AWS, Kubernetes, MySQL, PostgreSQL. Feel free to connect—I’d love to explore opportunities and share ideas!
