About this gig

Fintech backends fail in ways normal apps do not. A rounding error or a race condition on a balance becomes a compliance problem. I build backends that handle money correctly from day one.


As Development Manager at a global payments processor I architected and built credit products including loans, cards and loyalty programs on AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS and SNS. Before that I created kinti.bg, a consumer fintech platform, as CTO.


What I build:

- Loan origination, repayment schedules and interest calculation

- Card issuing and transaction processing flows

- Wallets, ledgers and double entry accounting

- Payment gateway and open banking integrations

- KYC, AML and GDPR compliant data handling with audit trails

- REST APIs with documentation for your frontend or partners


Stack: Python or PHP with Laravel, Node.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL or DynamoDB, event driven services on AWS, Terraform, CI pipelines and automated tests.


You receive tested code in your repository, deployment configuration and documentation. I can also review or extend an existing fintech codebase.


Message me before ordering with what you are building, your target market and any regulatory requirements.
