Demonstrates mature production engineering practices—contract-first APIs, event-driven architecture (Kafka/RabbitMQ), caching (Redis), and robust CI/CD + observability (Prometheus/Grafana/ELK)—and also created a Python-based audit automation tool adopted into the standard release process.”

“Former PwC Director with hands-on early-stage venture experience (e.g., BridgeLights, a big-data analytics concept for early fintech) spanning concept creation, platform architecture, and go-to-market experimentation. Strong focus on building scalable, modular data platforms with rigorous governance/compliance (data lineage, quality controls) and supporting technical diligence in investor-aligned environments.”

“Software engineer with Intuit experience shipping an end-to-end real-time financial insights product on AWS, using event-driven architecture with Kafka and Spark Streaming to process millions of records with low latency.
