About

Professional summary

I am a Principal Software Engineer with over six years of experience building secure, scalable full-stack web applications. My core expertise is in React, Node.js, TypeScript, and designing reliable REST APIs.

I work across frontend and backend development, delivering interfaces, services, and data layers using PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB. I focus on maintainable architecture, performance optimization, and high-quality production releases.

I have experience building compliance-sensitive financial systems where data integrity, auditability, and secure workflow controls are essential. I have rebuilt accounting and ledger workflows, resolved data discrepancies, and implemented controls for reliable financial reporting.

I specialize in authentication, authorization, SSO, 2FA, secure API design, and row-level data access controls. I also integrate payment gateways, webhooks, third-party APIs, and SDKs to support end-to-end business workflows.

I lead engineering teams through requirements analysis, technical design, implementation, code review, testing, and deployment. I mentor engineers in practices such as test-driven development and pair programming while improving delivery workflows.

I am experienced with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, AWS, cloud-native deployments, and automated release processes. I enjoy collaborating with product, design, and QA teams to deliver scalable products that solve real business problems.
