00 profile

Computer Engineer with 8+ years designing RESTful APIs and microservices for fintech and fundraising platforms. I lead engineering teams, integrate payment gateways across 13+ countries, and modernize legacy systems into event-driven architectures — the kind that quietly processes $100M+ without anyone noticing. That's the point.
