About

I am an accomplished Java & Cloud Professional with 3+ years of hands-on experience in designing, developing, and optimizing large-scale, high-performance enterprise applications. My expertise spans the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC), with a strong focus on Java (Spring, Hibernate, etc.) and cloud-native solutions. Over the years, I have developed a proven track record of developing resilient, scalable, and cost-effective systems on AWS, driving automation, and enhancing system reliability. My experience includes building cloud-native applications leveraging services like AWS Lambda, ECS Fargate, S3, RDS, Kubernetes, and serverless architectures, ensuring high-performance solutions that meet complex business needs. I play an active role in all stages of development—whether it’s coding, code reviews, or system design and implementation. My strong background in DevOps further complements my cloud skills, enabling me to design and manage CI/CD pipelines, automation, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools like Terraform and CloudFormation. Key Skills: Java (Spring Boot, Hibernate, JPA) Cloud Architecture (AWS) Microservices & Serverless Architectures DevOps & CI/CD (Jenkins, Terraform, CloudFormation) Kubernetes, Docker Databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB) Programming (JavaScript, Python) Distributed Systems & Kafka Streams
