What I offer

Services

Senior-level software engineering and consulting across the full stack — from scalable backend systems to AI-powered products and cloud infrastructure.

Core Capabilities

How I Can Help

Drawing on 15+ years across finance, utilities, and AI — I deliver engineering that is robust, scalable, and ready for production.

Backend Development

Production-grade microservices and APIs using Java and Spring Boot. I design and build systems that handle high throughput, enforce data integrity, and stay maintainable as complexity grows. Experienced across RESTful services, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and Derby databases.

  • Java & Spring / Spring Boot
  • REST Web Services & API Design
  • Oracle, PostgreSQL, Derby
  • Performance Testing — Blazemeter / JMeter

Cloud & AWS Architecture

AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner with hands-on production experience deploying containerised workloads on Amazon EKS, ECS, and SQS. I help organisations migrate to the cloud, design resilient multi-region architectures, and reduce infrastructure costs without sacrificing reliability.

  • Amazon AWS — EKS, ECS, SQS
  • Kubernetes & Container Orchestration
  • Cloud Migration & Cost Optimisation
  • Infrastructure Design & Review

Event-Driven Systems

Proven expertise building event-driven and message-driven architectures that decouple services and enable real-time data flows. At JP Morgan I engineered Kafka-based trade pipelines and MQ-driven billing systems processing millions of records reliably under load.

  • Apache Kafka — Topics, Consumers, Producers
  • MQ / IBM MQ Messaging
  • Real-Time Data Pipelines
  • SSE & Streaming APIs

AI / LLM Engineering

Building production agentic systems using LangChain and LangGraph on top of large language models. From prompt engineering and RAG pipelines to fully autonomous multi-agent workflows — I help businesses embed AI that actually works in real-world conditions, not just demos.

  • LangChain & LangGraph Agents
  • LLM Integration & Prompt Engineering
  • Python, FastAPI — AI Backends
  • RAG Pipelines & Vector Search

Technical Consulting

Embedded senior engineering leadership for teams that need depth without a full-time hire. I work with startups and scaleups to define technical strategy, establish engineering practices, advise on technology choices, and unblock delivery. Comfortable bridging business and engineering stakeholders.

  • Technology Strategy & Roadmapping
  • Engineering Process & Best Practices
  • Vendor & Technology Evaluation
  • Team Coaching & Code Review

Architecture Reviews

Independent assessment of your existing system architecture — identifying bottlenecks, single points of failure, security gaps, and scalability constraints before they become production incidents. I deliver a clear written report with prioritised recommendations you can act on immediately.

  • System Design & Scalability Audit
  • Security & Reliability Review
  • Database & Data Layer Assessment
  • Actionable Remediation Roadmap

Why Choose TeckGrow

The TeckGrow Difference

You get a senior engineer who has shipped at scale in demanding environments — not a generalist or a team of juniors.

Battle-Tested at Scale

9.7+ years in institutional finance at JP Morgan and 5.5+ years in critical utilities infrastructure at Rolta. I know what production engineering looks like when the stakes are real.

Full-Stack Ownership

From initial architecture through to deployment and monitoring — I take end-to-end ownership of what I build. No hand-offs, no gaps, no blame-shifting. Your system works or we fix it.

AI-Ready Engineering

Currently building with LangChain, LangGraph, and production LLMs at TeckGrow. I bring current, hands-on AI expertise to every engagement — not theoretical knowledge from a course.
