Two backend stacks, TypeScript/NestJS and Python/FastAPI, over PostgreSQL, Redis and queues. At a regulated fintech I built the payment orchestrator of an online collections site and co-develop an in-house payment gateway on PSE and Bre-B, designed to never charge twice.

  • Idempotency, row-level locks and a transactional outbox in the gateway core
  • Signed webhooks to merchants and field-level encryption with AES-256-GCM
  • One Go connector per rail, the sole owner of that rail's credentials
  • nestjs
  • fastapi
  • go
  • postgresql
  • redis/valkey
  • bullmq
