About
I build backend services in Java and Spring Boot, with a focus on turning complex business requirements into reliable and maintainable systems. Over the last 2+ years at ZopSmart, I've worked on enterprise product hierarchy and catalog management platforms. A large part of my work involves APIs and services that manage hierarchical product data, along with the workflows and events that keep these operations consistent across the system. I've worked on several areas of the backend, including versioned REST APIs, Kafka-based event processing, Temporal workflows, database performance, API security, and Azure integrations. One of my projects involved moving product downloads to Azure Blob Storage, which brought download time down by 99%. I've also improved API performance by optimizing MySQL queries, indexes, and projections. I have hands-on experience with both synchronous and asynchronous backend communication, including REST APIs and Kafka event streams, as well as workflow orchestration for operations such as creating, updating, moving, and deleting hierarchy nodes. On the security side, I've worked with Spring Security, OAuth2, JWT, and scope-based authorization. My day-to-day development also involves writing tests, reviewing code, working with CI/CD pipelines, debugging production issues, and collaborating with different parts of the engineering team. Alongside my project work, I continue to strengthen my fundamentals in Java, concurrency, databases, system design, and DSA.
