About

Over the course of many years, I've successfully designed, coded and delivered retail solutions across many functional areas. From working and integrating with payment providers like Adyen to deliver a smooth experience by including latest payment methods to integrating with 3rd party solution providers like BlackHawk Network and Eagle Eye for Gift card and customer loyalty features. I've also worked in many complex areas like promotions, discounts, personalized offers and taxes. The modules which were once monolith functionalities were broken into micro-services so they can be used across the different channels like Mobile Apps and Websites along with Point of Sale systems. I've made mistakes along the way too but I've learned from them and I've always focused on delivering quality software to our customers specifically tailored for their needs.
