• Modernized a monolithic fintech app by migrating from jQuery to React 16, later upgrading to React 17 with the latest Node.js LTS, improving frontend performance by 85% and laying the groundwork for modular scaling.
• Established a reusable component library using Blueprint.js, creating 20+ configurable UI components (tables, modals, form controls, etc.) in storybook for preview that now power multiple SaaS products across the organization—reducing dev time by 50% and enforcing design consistency.
• Implemented secure, scalable authentication with AWS Cognito + SSO (OAuth2/SAML) across client environments, reducing login issues by 40% and supporting compliance with fintech security standards (e.g., SOC 2).
• Built a dynamic reporting scheduler system that enabled agents and clients to auto-generate PDF/CSV reports on custom intervals (hourly to monthly), saving 100+ hours/month in manual report generation and aligning with real-time fintech analytics use cases.
• Led a 5-person Agile team delivering consistent sprint deliverables for high-stakes fintech features like transaction dispute management, fraud alerts, and onboarding flows, with a 100% sprint goal completion rate over 6+ quarters.
• Developed multi-tenant architecture controls allowing clients to dynamically toggle features, set custom UI themes, and restrict data access per user role—now used by 10+ enterprise fintech clients across UK and USA with configurable workflows.
• Architected a case management system to handle 1M+ monthly merchant records, with advanced CRUD operations, tiered access control, and in-app workflow logic tailored for SaaS dispute and reconciliation flows by incorpoprating tools like AgGrid.
• Engineered a high-volume webhook delivery service with AWS SNS, processing 10,000+ notifications/day (SMS, email, fax) for time-sensitive alerts like chargeback disputes and fraud flags.
• Introduced React Context API and custom hooks across the frontend codebase, replacing Redux in low-complexity modules to streamline state management and reduce boilerplate by 50% along with removing old class based components.
• Optimized page load performance by implementing code-splitting with React.lazy and Webpack tree-shaking, reducing initial bundle size by 25%.

Developed a configurable, multi-step underwriting and merchant onboarding system integrating third-party KYC APIs (Giact, LexisNexis, Experian), custom scorecard logic, and reusable Angular components—accelerating client onboarding and credit risk decisioning for fintech partners.

• Selected as the sole Graduate Teaching Assistant from 160+ graduate applicants based on #1 class rank and expertise in software development lifecycles and project management; awarded scholarship and in-state tuition as part of the role.
• Collaborated with a professor with 47 years of teaching experience to design course materials—such as lecture slides and homework assignments—focused on the DMAIC framework for Six Sigma and cyclometric complexity analysis for data visualization.
• Supported 70+ master’s students through weekly office hours, prompt email assistance, and assignment grading (~20 hours/week) while maintaining a 3.9 GPA, contributing to a 100% pass rate and reappointment as TA for the following semester.

Worked as part of an 11-member software engineering team at the Indian division of a $22B global telecom company to develop T-SQL modules for managing data from internal Ericsson tools used to analyze customer network KPIs. These modules addressed ad hoc client queries and improved network performance for cellular sites in Nigeria and South Africa. Additionally, optimized slow-running modules by implementing efficient subqueries and advanced joins, reducing data extraction and loading times by 50% and enabling faster analysis of underperforming sites.
