Senior Software Engineer | Building Scalable Backend Systems with Java, Spring Boot & Kafka | Cloud-Native | Distributed Systems

About

Senior Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building backend systems that are fast, reliable, and easy to scale. My core strength is using Java, Spring Boot, and Apache Kafka to build microservices and REST APIs. I enjoy designing systems that handle large amounts of data smoothly and solving tricky backend problems along the way. A few things I'm proud of: - Improved system efficiency by 25% through smart performance optimizations. - Won "Star of the Quarter" multiple times for my work - Built event-driven systems using Kafka for real-time data processing Tools I work with: Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, REST APIs, Microservices, AWS, SQL, Redis, CI/CD, Docker I like working in collaborative teams and writing clean code that's easy to maintain. Right now, I'm open to Senior Backend / Software Engineer roles — feel free to reach out!
