Portfolio

Expense Commission Infrastructure

Designed and developed a highly dynamic rule-based expense commission infrastructure and integrated with core banking modules, ATM, and internet banking. With a user-friendly front end, skilled end users were able to change or add new rules based on transaction channels, the amount of the transaction, or customer CRM data.

Procurement Project

My role as a tech lead was to design and develop a serverless application to integrate with a Sharepoint-like platform used for a mega procurement project. This application needed to periodically retrieve data using REST API, process with Azure Durable Functions, and manage the state of workflows on the platform.

Machine Learning Project

I was involved in a machine learning project for a startup company. I was responsible for the development of text clustering, text extraction, title, and content identification of data that was coming from image OCR API using Python. I also developed REST API using Flask to liaise with React front-end developers.
