What I'm Excited About
A new chapter in the finance industry - I've joined a major U.S. bank and Fortune 100 company as a Senior Software Engineer. It's a big shift from my time at Amazon, but I'm excited to dive into the financial domain and tackle new challenges. On the tech side, I'll be sharpening my skills in Spring Boot, Kafka, and AWS Fargate.
I will also continue to work on my SaaS recipes project in my free time. It's been a great learning experience.
The Plan (Such As It Is)
I don't have a grand master plan for 2026. I'm going to keep building, keep learning, and see where things go 💯
