Software Engineer at Finmo — a global payments and FinTech infrastructure company. Day to day, I design and ship systems that move money reliably: FX hedging engines, cross-border payment connectors, reconciliation pipelines, IAM and auth flows, and multi-organization treasury infrastructure. The domain is unforgiving — correctness, fault tolerance, and auditability aren't nice-to-haves.
My instinct on any problem is architecture-first. Understand the failure modes, define the boundaries, reason about consistency and state, then write the code. I vibe code freely and ship fast, but I hold the underlying design to a high standard. The two aren't in conflict — moving quickly is only sustainable when the system underneath is honest.
Outside of payments, I build in the AI/ML space: RAG pipelines, LLM tooling, and developer-facing systems where retrieval quality and inference performance actually matter.
