I’m a senior Java backend engineer with 10 years of experience, the last seven of them in banking technology. My work sits between two worlds — understanding what financial businesses need, and building the dependable systems that deliver it: microservices, REST APIs, data pipelines and production engineering, operated to bank-grade standards.
