Experience

Leading new-domain build-out within the Acquire team, alongside cross-cutting platform initiatives.

• Led the initial build of the Receiver Bounded Context — foundational entities, filter framework, Availability model, first service-to-service endpoints, and early integration / system test infrastructure — handing later iterations to other owners.
• Scaffolded and built out a new greenfield Promotions Bounded Context: aggregate root, targeting-settings entity, coupon lifecycle (entities plus availability / usage / creation services), assignment domain (entities, events, contracts, processor), and a route-aware coupon provider.
• Progressively retired legacy recipient APIs in favour of Bounded-Context-owned endpoints across factories, batch flows, and internal tooling.
• Designed and shipped a company-wide PHP HTTP client library — factory-based composition, trait-driven reuse, JWT-enforced request factories, Symfony autowiring — and drove its adoption across two services.
• Led the rollout of AsyncAPI as the team's contract-first documentation standard: pre-commit schema validation, contract tests aligning entity serialization with published schemas, and a written review process for downstream consumers.
• Drove the Acquire team's contribution to a cross-service data-retention programme spanning three services.
• Introduced AI-assisted development tooling on the team: agent context files, structured command workflows, PRD / Plan separation, and pre-planning analysis skills.
• Recurring reliability work: optimistic locking, integrity-constraint handling, race-condition fixes on duplicate-check inserts, N+1 remediation, DLQ investigation, worker graceful-shutdown behaviour.
• Continued stewardship of Refer-a-Friend in parallel: legacy-pattern cleanup, PHP version upgrade, dependency automation, systematic feature-toggle removal.

Continuing to lead Refer-a-Friend within the Acquire team, with expanded scope across platform and cross-service concerns.

• Hardened the RAF Bounded Context and its data model to the point where a later service-extraction effort - executed by another engineer - completed in a couple of days with no production incidents.
• Executed large-scale datastore refactorings aligned to the new service boundaries, improving query performance and long-term maintainability.
• Raised observability coverage for RAF with dedicated metrics, alerting, and dashboards, shortening time-to-detect for production issues.
• Contributed a company-wide shared library for exception handling and HTTP client behavior, later adopted across multiple services.
• Authored the RFC defining the Receivers domain model, shaping cross-team integration patterns for downstream consumers.
• Delivered a range of product and platform improvements: RAF link redirects, campaign assignment after identity-provider events, related-profile and related-friend checks, program-currency adaptation, reward-total corrections, and campaign-recalculation refinements.
• Improved BAU onboarding and marketing-consent flows in collaboration with the Trust & Regulatory workstream.
• Ongoing developer-experience work: shared enums, queue ergonomics, and integration improvements around favorite corridors and transaction data.

Part of the Acquire team, leading the rewrite of the Refer-a-Friend platform.

• Designed and delivered a new Bounded Context for the Refer-a-Friend domain, migrating existing functionality into a clearer architecture and reducing coupling with the surrounding Remittance platform.
• Owned the Advocate/Friend user-management lifecycle end-to-end within the new context, including identity, eligibility, and state transitions.
• Owned program management - programs, campaigns, and promotional strategies — and introduced support for multiple concurrent campaigns per program.
• Replaced manual user-eligibility checks with an automated, extensible check framework, allowing new rules to be added without touching core flows.
• Standardized API response shapes and error handling across all RAF endpoints, producing consistent entity contracts regardless of the calling surface.
• Improved structured logging and queue management; onboarding a new queue went from a multi-day effort to a single morning.
• Reduced lead time for bug fixes and feature delivery; several refinements now ship within hours rather than sprints.
• Established an Epic / Story / Sub-task breakdown cadence in use by the team.
• Increase in platform stability post-migration.
