Ledger platforms. Tax compliance engines. Reconciliation pipelines. Cross-border payment infrastructure. Across blockchain and traditional fintech — at NASDAQ-listed scale.
18+ years in engineering. 10+ across payments, fintech, and crypto. I lead teams that own mission-critical financial infrastructure — the kind where a single miscalculated entry triggers a regulatory inquiry, not just a bug ticket.
At Coinbase, I owned the ledger modernisation roadmap — automated accounting across 350+ fund flows, compressed settlement from T+30 to T+1, and built the tax engineering function from 3 to 15 engineers in a single quarter to deliver IRS digital asset reporting for 70M+ US users. I also pioneered AI-first engineering in a regulated environment — 80% of PRs authored via Claude with compliance guardrails in production.
At Nium, I grew an engineering org from 10 to 40+, delivered cross-border payment infrastructure from zero across 100+ currencies and 600+ bank accounts, and built in-house reconciliation that replaced a $250K/yr vendor — all at 99.999% uptime.
Before that, I founded Trice Technologies — an eLearning product that reached 100K+ licences and exited at 10x.
Two financial infrastructure platforms. Two regulated environments. Both built from the ground up — one in crypto, one in cross-border payments.
Four case studies on building and leading engineering teams that own mission-critical financial infrastructure — from ledger transformations to cross-timezone org design.
Detailed case studies with context, decisions, and outcomes. Shared with recruiters and hiring managers on request.
Deep domain expertise across financial infrastructure, compliance, and engineering — not a generalist learning payments on the job.
Everything a recruiter or hiring manager needs — in one place.
Open to Senior Engineering Manager, Director of Engineering, and VP/Head of Engineering roles in fintech, payments, and crypto.
