WORK HISTORY
Principal Engineer @LexisNexis
London, GB
As Principal Engineer at Lexis, I lead the architecture and delivery of scalable features and platform enhancements across a full-stack environment—Angular and TypeScript on the frontend.NET 8 on the backend. I drive modernization through micro frontends, appliance-based deployment, and globalization support.My role spans hands-on engineering and strategic innovation, including the integration of AI features via Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). I’ve initiated key efforts to align platform architecture for intelligent, context-aware capabilities.In parallel, I’ve leveraged the Microsoft 365 ecosystem—particularly Power Automate—to implement AI-driven workflows that accelerate story generation and internal processes. These automations significantly enhance team efficiency and reduce manual overhead.Working cross-functionally with product, design, and infrastructure, I ensure technical excellence while mentoring engineers and fostering scalable development practices.
