Software Engineer 2 @ Wayfair | Backend Engineer | Building Scalable Backend & Distributed Systems | Java • Spring Boot • Kafka • Microservices • Event-Driven Architecture

About

I'm a Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience building scalable backend systems, distributed applications, and event-driven platforms using Java, Spring Boot, Apache Kafka, and SQL. My experience includes designing systems for high-volume event processing, distributed file processing, fault tolerance, and enterprise integrations. Some highlights from my experience: • Built configurable event-driven systems processing ~1 million events/day, tested to scale up to 21,000 transactions per minute. • Designed resilient event-processing frameworks with retry, failure recovery, sequential and parallel processing, contributing to an 87% reduction in HTTP 4XX/5XX errors. • Designed a distributed file-processing framework using Spring Batch and Kafka, capable of processing files up to 10 GB using remote chunking and distributed workload processing.
