Hi Apache Fineract Community, I hope this email finds you well. My name is Roshan Madival, and I am writing to introduce myself as a prospective GSoC 2026 contributor for Apache Fineract.
I am currently working as a Java Developer at IBM, where I build and maintain backend services using Java, Spring Boot, and Microservices architecture. Alongside my professional work, I have been actively learning Agentic AI and am familiar with Python as well. I hold several relevant certifications: • Oracle AI Database SQL Certified Associate (Feb 2026) • Oracle Fusion AI Agent Studio Certified (Feb 2026) • IBM Generative & Agentic AI Foundation (Nov 2025) • AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (Sep 2025) • Oracle Certified Foundations Associate (Jun 2025) I have prior open source experience contributing to OpenMRS, which shares a similar Java/Spring-based architecture with Apache Fineract. This has given me a solid foundation in navigating large codebases and working with community-driven development workflows. I am particularly interested in contributing to areas around stability, testing, and documentation — as I understand those are current priorities for the GSoC program. I am a self-starter and comfortable working independently with existing resources and documentation. I look forward to connecting with the community and learning more about how I can contribute meaningfully. Thank you for your time!
