WORK HISTORY
Software Engineer @GoCardless
London, GB
I design and build full-stack products that help partners integrate with GoCardless and understand their performance. Working with React and Ruby, I focus on delivering secure, scalable user experiences backed by reliable APIs and collaborative engineering practices. • Building the Partner Dashboard — a platform where partners can manage their integrations, view merchant activity, and access reporting on revenue and performance. I work across both the React frontend and the backend services that power these insights. • Developing backend APIs and platform features, including secure request signing, partner integration flows, and account management capabilities. I collaborate with security, privacy, and other engineering teams to ensure reliability, compliance, and a smooth developer experience. • Leading the creation of GoCardless Components — a compliant, customizable, embeddable React component suite that enables partners to start accepting payments quickly and securely. • Mentoring engineers and shaping team practices by driving scoping discussions, leading design reviews, and improving documentation and testing standards to strengthen code quality and accelerate onboarding.
