He has driven end-to-end implementations—card processing, PayPal, gift cards, rewards, instant credit, saved tenders, EMV chip support and fraud risk management—while serving as technical lead and interim solution architect for PCI compliance and scalable design. Comfortable across microservices, Spring Boot, cloud deployments, and observability stacks (Dynatrace, Kibana, Splunk), he couples hands-on coding with production troubleshooting and stakeholder-facing architecture work. At REI he not only owned the gateway but also coordinated vendor integrations and introduced new design patterns that improved security and maintainability. Based in Bellevue, WA, he blends deep payments domain expertise with practical DevOps experience and a track record of delivering PCI-aware, merchant-grade solutions.
