Senior Java Technical Lead / Backend Engineer

I apply IAM and secure API design to user onboarding, sign-in, and access control for connected-vehicle and telematics services in a distributed cloud-native environment.

I build scalable microservice integrations between vehicles and cloud platforms, focusing on maintainability, performance, and auditability. I led the move to HashiCorp Vault for secrets management, including Vault proxy configurations, and collaborate with network, IoT, and product teams to deliver reusable components and end-to-end features.

I ran the Nevis Security Suite, including nevisProxy and nevisAdmin, in the CIAM layer for customer-facing digital private banking platforms serving more than 100,000 users and approximately 100,000 daily logins. My work covered reverse-proxy authentication, secure routing, SSL/TLS termination, and MFA integration using Vasco and Digipass tokens.

I led and line-managed a team of three to five engineers, owning architecture, development, testing, deployment, and production support. I introduced event-driven processing with Apache Kafka and AWS SQS, containerized services with Docker and Helm, deployed to OpenShift and Kubernetes through Jenkins pipelines, and led investigations into complex sign-in, federation, and MFA incidents.

I led a four-person engineering team delivering Java and Spring Boot microservices and distributed backend services for Credit Suisse digital private banking platforms. I provided line management, mentoring, engineering direction, and delivery leadership.

I configured and operated the Nevis Security Suite for customer and employee authentication. I implemented Vasco 2FA and OTP capabilities for privileged access management and access-review standards, while establishing automation, security-hardening, PAM, and access-review practices across banking platforms.

I built and maintained RESTful and SOAP services for enterprise banking applications using Java, Spring MVC, Spring Integration, and Hibernate. I delivered backend integrations and business services supporting core banking workflows.

I implemented authentication and authorization with Spring Security and designed business logic with an emphasis on performance, reliability, production stability, and maintainable enterprise application architecture.

I developed enterprise applications using Java and the Spring Framework for Mapfre Insurance. I created REST and SOAP services to support system integration and backend business processes.

I used JPA and Hibernate for persistence-layer implementation and database integration, contributing to reliable and maintainable enterprise applications.

I developed web-based enterprise applications with Java and the Spring Framework for clients including Honda Europe, Specsavers UK, and Bose US. My work included backend business logic and relational database integration.

I built and maintained RESTful services for application integration, supporting enterprise systems with maintainable Java-based service implementations.

Bachelor of Technology in Computer Software Engineering.
