Principal Engineer & Systems Architect • UI Architect at Aries.com with 15+ years of enterprise platform delivery, high-frequency trading architecture, and technical execution.
Currently, I am the UI Architect at Aries (Aries.com), a US-based trading broker, where I own the entire frontend engineering stack. I lead the development of our infinite canvas trading workspace, high-throughput two-thread Web Worker architecture, design systems, AI and multimodal voice trading experiences, and institutional onboarding.
Prior to Aries, I worked at Oracle Cloud as a Principal Systems Engineer & UI Architect, and previously at PayPal as a Software Developer. At PayPal, I designed the cross-platform compliance architecture that unlocked high-value payments ($3,000+) recovering $800K/week in transaction volume, and streamlined global CRM operations saving millions annually. At Oracle Cloud, I led UI architecture for Access Governance, raised automated test coverage from 30% to 82%, and co-invented US Patent US12339836B2 (Oracle International Corp) for datasource introspection UI for GraphQL schema and resolver generation.
My approach is grounded in deep technical ownership: I dive into high-stakes complexity, eliminate architectural debt, build resilient systems, and mentor engineering teams to operate with high craft and velocity.
Own the entire frontend estate for a US-based trading broker. Engineered high-performance infinite canvas trading workspaces with real-time cross-browser content synchronization, spearheaded AI-assisted development across 314 modernized TypeScript files and 90%+ test coverage, built native streaming AI/voice trading bots, extracted 'aries-web-library', and shipped institutional fintech onboarding with Plaid Layer.
Led UI architecture for a cloud-native enterprise Access Governance platform serving global corporate customers. Raised backend test coverage from 30% to 82%, restoring release velocity and system stability. Co-invented US Patent US12339836B2 (Oracle International Corp): Built the interactive UI to select database schema objects, REST objects, or interfaces to automatically generate GraphQL schemas and resolvers from backend datasources.
Engineered high-scale transaction systems and compliance flows. Spearheaded the cross-platform compliance architecture (Web, Android, iOS) that unlocked transactions above $3,000 without disrupting checkout, recovering ~$800,000 per week. Redesigned customer support CRM workflows across 200K+ daily calls to save 30 seconds per call.
Technical debt compounds silently. Establishing 90% unit test coverage targets at Aries proves that speed and bulletproof quality must go hand-in-hand.
In real-time trading and financial systems, main-thread congestion is fatal. Offloading websocket ticks to Web Workers and creating two-thread architectures keeps the UI interactive at 60fps.
Most systems do not need multi-year ground-up rewrites. They need clear domain boundaries, decoupled bottlenecks, and structured migration paths that keep the business shipping.
From component design tokens to Web Worker threads, database streaming replicas, and E2E CI pipelines, I own solutions end-to-end.
