Relevant work experience

• Developed an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) risk assessment platform that evaluated buyer and vendor risk across property transactions, building C# .NET APIs and a React/Next.js front end used by compliance teams. • Designed event-driven workflows using Azure Service Bus to decouple risk assessment processing between services, enabling reliable, asynchronous handling of AML check requests at scale. • Implemented data persistence with Azure Cosmos DB for risk assessment records alongside SQL Server as the legacy data management platform, keeping both stores consistent during ongoing migration. • Modelled and queried PostgreSQL schemas backing AML case and audit history, designing indexes and tuning Entity Framework Core queries to keep compliance search and reporting responsive as record volumes grew. • Built Azure Functions that trigger a third-party document verification platform for identity and document checks, automating a previously manual step in the customer due diligence process. • Integrated Azure Storage for secure handling of customer documents and data, applying secure coding and data protection practices appropriate to regulated financial compliance workloads.
