01
Platform modernisation & migration
Consolidating sprawling service estates into maintainable architectures — phased, reversible, and shipping the whole way. Reverse-engineered maps, delivery sequencing, change-data-capture cutovers.
02
Backend architecture & APIs
System design for high-traffic platforms: event-driven and domain-driven services, API-gateway strategy, payments and financial systems, idempotency and reconciliation.
03
Reliability & cost
Distributed-system reliability, observability and trace correlation, load testing, and infrastructure cost reduction — cutting rented complexity without a big-bang rewrite.
About
14 years shipping backends teams rely on.
Currently leading the consolidation of a 60+ service legacy platform at Carro / Kaidee into a modular architecture — a designed ~$204K annual GCP saving and a custom CDN/WAF replacing Akamai. Before that: Australian fintech consulting (escrow payments), and Wave Money, Myanmar's largest mobile financial services platform.
