Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience building and scaling backend and distributed systems across payments, checkout, flights, messaging, and compliance platforms at Expedia Group, Oracle, Deutsche Bank, and PayPal. Currently an SDE III at Expedia Group, where I lead end-to-end delivery of high-impact initiatives used by millions of travelers globally. My work spans co-branded credit card integrations, dynamic pricing engines (“Show the Math”), unified messaging migrations, Digital Services Act (DSA) compliance for EU/UK markets, and enabling paid flight ancillaries for merchant-of-record transactions. Beyond technical delivery, I strongly enjoy mentoring and team building. I have onboarded and mentored 6+ engineers (SDE1–SDE2), helping them ramp up on complex systems, become on-call ready, and grow into independent contributors within months. I have also conducted 20+ technical interviews and played a key role in hiring and building an entire engineering team, partnering closely with hiring managers and recruiters. My technical toolkit includes Java, Spring Boot, distributed systems, AWS, SQL/NoSQL, Elasticsearch, Kafka, gRPC, GraphQL, and modern observability tools. I bring a strong ownership mindset, clear communication, and a bias for pragmatic, scalable solutions. I’m passionate about building reliable systems at scale, growing strong engineering teams, and solving real-world problems at the intersection of technology and business impact. Open to Senior Software Engineer/Manager opportunities where I can continue to build, lead, and scale impactful platforms.
