Backend Developer at Validus.sg

I am a Backend Developer at Validus, a leading Fintech platform in Singapore, where I specialize in building robust, scalable, and secure backend systems. My day-to-day responsibilities include designing APIs, enhancing application performance, and ensuring seamless integration with complex financial ecosystems. I thrive on solving intricate technical challenges and delivering reliable solutions that drive business value.

Currently, I am also pursuing a Master’s in Financial Technology at the University of Wollongong (UOW), Gift City Campus, India. This program allows me to dive deep into the intersection of technology and finance, exploring areas like blockchain, digital payments, AI in finance, and financial modeling. It’s a perfect complement to my professional experience, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of the financial domain and its evolving technological landscape.

Over the years, I’ve developed expertise in backend technologies, including Java, Spring Boot, and RESTful services. My experience also extends to working with databases, cloud infrastructure, and DevOps practices, ensuring that the solutions I create are both efficient and future-proof.

I’m passionate about innovation and continuously strive to expand my skill set. Staying updated with industry trends is a priority for me, whether it’s by exploring emerging technologies or participating in discussions within the tech community. Outside of work and academics, I enjoy contributing to open-source projects and experimenting with new tools to refine my craft.

With a vision to create impactful and transformative solutions in the fintech space, I am committed to leveraging my technical expertise and financial knowledge to shape the future of financial services.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."
