With 13+ years of experience, I specialize in automating infrastructure setup, managing system performance, and ensuring high availability in mission-critical financial messaging environments. As part of SWIFT’s messaging team, I focus on the operations and optimization of SWIFTNet end-to-end flows, real-time (RT) payment systems, store-and-forward messaging, and ESMIG-related systems to ensure seamless and secure financial transactions.

Proficient in Linux administration and Ansible, I streamline configuration management and system operations while leveraging Git, Jenkins, Argo CD, and Red Hat OpenShift (OCP) for CI/CD automation and container orchestration. My expertise in Docker containerization allows for scalable and efficient deployments, while Terraform helps in provisioning cloud infrastructure.

I have extensive experience in monitoring and log analysis, utilizing Oasis, Splunk, AppDynamics, and the ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) to ensure proactive issue resolution and system stability. Additionally, I work with Kafka to implement real-time data streaming solutions, optimizing low-latency and high-throughput transaction pipelines.

Security and compliance are at the core of my responsibilities, including Hardware Security Modules (HSM), Data at Rest and In-Transit TLS encryption, and Message Security configurations. I also apply JVM and WebLogic Server performance tuning techniques to enhance efficiency and stability.

Proficient in Python and Bash scripting, I automate key operational tasks to improve efficiency and reliability. With strong project management, leadership, and communication skills, I collaborate effectively across teams, staying updated with the latest technologies to tackle complex challenges and drive continuous innovation in financial messaging operations.
