FinTech and trading backend
Production services for trading environments, MT4 data retrieval, event synchronization, WebSockets, Kafka, Redis, and low-latency workflows.
Senior .NET Backend Engineer for fintech, trading, and distributed systems
Backend systems that stay fast when the business gets complex.
I design, modernize, and stabilize business-critical software across fintech, trading, SaaS, insurance, automotive, and retail. My strongest zone is where C#/.NET, SQL, messaging, observability, and production ownership meet.

Positioning
I turn fragile, expensive backend flows into measurable engineering leverage.
The pattern across my work is consistent: understand the business process, expose the technical bottleneck, simplify the service contract, optimize the data path, add observability, and leave the team with a system they can operate with confidence.
What I bring
Senior backend range, with production scars.
Distributed systems design
Microservices, event-driven architecture, gRPC, API contracts, fault-tolerance testing, backup switching, and resilient service integration.
Legacy modernization
Extracting business logic from legacy platforms, moving services to modern .NET stacks, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and GitOps deployment flows.
Performance and SQL depth
Execution plans, stored procedures, distributed queries, backend bottleneck analysis, data retrieval optimization, and measurable speed gains.
Production troubleshooting
Deep debugging, observability, incident support, code reviews, test coverage, logging flows, and root-cause analysis in complex systems.
Technical leadership
Team leading, mentoring, task decomposition, engineering estimates, quality control, documentation, and cross-functional delivery.
Experience
Career evidence, not buzzwords.
