Senior Full Stack Engineer with 5+ years building and scaling production systems in fintech. I specialize in end-to-end TypeScript systems — scalable REST/GraphQL APIs, React/Next.js frontends, distributed microservices, and AI-integrated backends.
I've shipped production features handling high-volume transactions, led architectural modernization from monolith to microservices, and integrated AI into real-world workflows — from OCR-based identity verification to Claude-powered course generation.
What I work on:
- Full-stack SaaS products (Next.js · tRPC · Prisma · Drizzle · PostgreSQL)
- Backend APIs (Hono.js · Node.js · REST · GraphQL)
- AI integration (Anthropic Claude API · structured output pipelines · fraud detection)
- Payment systems (Stripe · PayPal · M-Pesa Daraja)
- Cloud infrastructure (AWS · GCP · Docker · GitHub Actions)
Open to senior roles, staff-level collaboration, and long-term remote engagements.
