Staff / Lead Systems & Platform Engineer

Distributed systems · payments · AI-assisted engineering

Hands-on systems and platform engineer with 10+ years turning ambiguous, complex problems into reliable production systems across fintech, data, and enterprise environments. I work from discovery and proof of concept through delivery, combining architectural judgment, hands-on implementation, clear guardrails, and cross-team coordination. I’ve used Codex, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot—alongside Orca and Conductor when parallelization is valuable—to execute approved specs through subagents and MCP-enabled workflows, creating reusable plugins, skills, and AGENTS.md guidance that encode project conventions and make delivery faster, more consistent, and easier to verify.
