Backend, architecture and security in a live early-stage codebase, where the paths that move money have to be right.
- Context
- Founding Engineer, Jul 2026 to now
- My part
- Backend engineering, software architecture and security ownership
- Focus
- Money movement, access control, durable production workflows
- Year
- 2026–
- What it is
- An early-stage technology company with a marketplace, supplier operations and production workflows already running.
- What I did
- I own backend and security work across supplier settlement, payout retries and refunds; role-aware access control around messaging, redaction and disputes; and durable job and file state behind production workflows.
- Result
- Work ships through feature branches, pull requests, focused tests, code review and production checks, weighing failure paths, infrastructure cost and implementation risk. The codebase is private, so this page stays at that level.
