About

I’m a FinTech & Payments Quality Engineering leader with 20+ years of experience building scalable, reliable platforms across payments, lending, and digital finance. Currently, I work as SDET Manager at Zeta, leading quality strategy, test automation, CI/CD, and reliability engineering for high-scale payment systems. My focus is on building quality-first cultures, mentoring teams, and enabling fast yet secure product delivery in regulated environments. Alongside my core role, I actively build Android applications, design AI agents, and work on algorithmic trading systems, combining engineering depth with applied AI and data-driven decision-making. I’m also an Angel Investor and Selection Panel Member at Inflection Point Ventures (IPV), where I evaluate early-stage startups across FinTech, SaaS, and Deep Tech. I’ve reviewed 500+ startups, contributing to founder selection, feedback, and investor presentations. I enjoy working at the intersection of technology, quality, AI, and startups, and I’m always open to conversations around building scalable systems, mentoring teams, and supporting founders.
