Software Engineer III @ Maersk Technology
8.5+ years building scalable distributed systems — from pixel-perfect UIs to high-throughput backend services.
I currently specialise in backend engineering and distributed systems, designing services that power analytics at scale across APMT (APM Terminals). My systems handle real-world, high-volume workloads in production.
What sets me apart: I spent 5 years as a frontend engineer (React, Vue, Next.js, Node.js/BFF) before transitioning fully to the backend. That end-to-end perspective means I can own a feature from Kafka topic to the final rendered component — and I understand the tradeoffs at every layer.
- 🏗️ System Design – Designed and shipped distributed systems in production use at APMT Analytics, handling enterprise-scale data pipelines.
- 🔄 Event-Driven Architecture – Building Kafka-based, event-driven services for real-time data processing across Maersk's logistics platform.
- 🌐 End-to-End Ownership – Comfortable owning the full slice: API design, service orchestration, and the frontend that consumes it.
- ⚡ Performance Engineering – Optimised both backend API latency (JVM tuning, query optimisation) and frontend Core Web Vitals from previous roles.
- 🧪 Quality-First – Rigorous testing culture across unit, integration, and contract tests (JUnit, Mockito, Jest, Cypress).
