Experience
Senior Software Engineer

At Rise, I strengthened core payments and analytics systems, streamlining overdue payment workflows, cutting transaction latency, and enabling real-time vendor and leadership dashboards. My work spanned backend (Python, Rails, PostgreSQL, AWS), caching layers, and data pipelines into Snowflake, driving both system reliability at scale and smarter decision-making across the business.Key accomplishments include:* Overhauled an overdue payment microservice using Python, SQL (PostgreSQL), and AWS RDS with granular row-level locks and atomic transactions, reducing fee miscalculations by 75% and improving system reliability for 100k+ users.* Developed a high-performance payment gateway utilizing Python API with Redis caching to slash median latency by 250ms, enabling faster transaction settlements.Built a real-time dashboard with React tracking 15+ KPIs across 100+ vendors, enabling the ops team to monitor financial risk.* Engineered a secure AWS data pipeline, migrating RDS snapshots in S3 to Snowflake, that powered business intelligence dashboards, enabling leadership to track key financial and operational metrics.
