iCapital — Fintech Platform Engineering

iCapital's platform handles alternative investment transactions for wealth managers at scale — a large, complex codebase with many specialized teams. Joined as a staff aug senior engineer, embedded with one of those teams and contributing across the full stack.

Expanded translation support across the platform — covering both static UI copy and dynamic, database-backed content using the Mobility gem for Rails. On the Nominee Investments project — a high-visibility initiative to unify several disparate nominee investment flows — co-designed and built a new Rails service to consolidate bulk processing for thousands of investments, with a clean API surface for frontend consumption. Also drove the team's migration from v1 to v2 of Supernova, their internal React component library — navigating breaking changes and coordinating back-and-forth with the library team when components needed fixes or new releases before the upgrade could proceed.

Still engaged — trusted with backend service design, a cross-stack i18n rollout, and a component library migration on one of the more complex fintech platforms in the alternatives space.
