Designing Resilient Platform Architectures for Enterprise Scale
Solution Architecture Cloud-Native Systems Event-Driven (.NET / Kafka) AI-Driven Engineering
I design and modernize high-throughput, cloud-native financial platforms, leveraging C#, AWS, and Kafka to build highly resilient distributed systems. I focus on building developer scaffolding, removing boilerplate friction, and establishing clean architectural standards that accelerate enterprise product delivery.
Architectural Governance
I work at the intersection of software engineering, platform architecture, and delivery. Having transitioned from Technical Lead to Solution Architect at JPMorgan Chase, I define system roadmaps, author standards (observability logs, schema definitions, IAM access controls), and mentor engineering teams on reasoning about scalability, partitions, and eventual consistency tradeoffs in distributed systems.

Career Milestones
Chronological breakdown of leadership, platform design deliverables, and execution across financial systems.
JPMorgan Chase
- Solution Architect (01/2025 - Present)
- Technical Lead (07/2022 - 12/2024)
- Set the architectural direction and technical roadmap for cloud modernization programs, defining development standards adopted by 25 engineers across 4 feature teams.
- Present architectural designs, technology choices, and build-vs-buy recommendations directly to VP/Director leadership and architecture review boards.
- Defined security integration rules (encryption, IAM roles, access controls) and OpenTelemetry tracing standards for microservices, which helped speed up production incident debugging.
- Mentor other engineers on distributed systems design, helping teams understand tradeoffs around eventual consistency, network partitioning, and database isolation.
- Led the technical design of our event-driven order processing platform on Confluent Kafka, setting up partitioning key strategies to ensure correct message ordering under heavy load.
- Designed automated message transformation pipelines to process downstream financial data, reducing manual reconciliation work and bottlenecks.
- Helped teams adopt AI coding practices (like Copilot) and co-developed an LLM-based documentation tool that won 2nd Runner-Up at the 2024 JPMorgan Chase Hackathon.
- Led the migration of legacy .NET monoliths to .NET 8 microservices, reducing service bootstrap time from 3 weeks to under 5 days using reusable design templates.
