● Designed and led the end-to-end delivery of a cloud-native AML Name Screening platform, built for low-latency client screening against 3,200+ global watchlists. The solution leverages Levenshtein distance and phonetic algorithms for accurate name matching, supported by a curated rule engine to reduce false positives using multi-identifier validation. Watchlist data is aggregated via scraping and APIs from global regulatory sources, and meticulously curated by an internal data team and AML experts. Delivered a scalable, secure, and compliant system with full-stack observability through OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, and InfluxDB—ensuring real-time visibility and operational resilience.
● Architected and led the development of a cloud-native, AML-compliant Transaction Screening and Monitoring platform, built for high-risk domains including PAPG, crypto, and insurance. Designed to process 10+ million transactions daily with low resource utilization and seamless horizontal scaling. The system employs distributed microservices for live rule evaluation, cumulative scoring, breach detection, and real-time alerting. Leveraged Kafka for event-driven decoupling and Redis for distributed caching to optimize performance. Ensured GDPR compliance with encryption of data at rest and in transit. Delivered with a lean team, emphasizing modularity, scalability, and comprehensive observability via OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, and InfluxDB.
● Modernized legacy platforms with full CI/CD automation. Led the adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, migrated services to AWS with EKS orchestration, and adopted serverless patterns, achieving an 80% reduction in infrastructure costs while tripling processing throughput.
● Ensured platform alignment with ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR standards. Oversaw regular VAPT cycles conducted by CERT-In empaneled vendors, enforcing stringent security and privacy controls across the stack.
