Designed and implemented a scalable event-driven data pipeline using Apache Kafka, transforming XML payloads into JSON/Avro formats to enable reliable real-time data exchange across distributed systems. Developed and maintained RESTful microservices in Scala for container yard movement workflows, enabling real-time decision-making and seamless integration with terminal operations systems. Integrated backend services with an optimization engine by building Java-based wrappers, automating scheduling workflows and converting outputs into UI-ready and reporting formats. Implemented config-driven transformation logic for yard mapping and business rules, improving system flexibility and reducing manual configuration effort. Improved system reliability by analyzing and debugging Kafka pipelines, API flows, and MongoDB data inconsistencies, significantly reducing production issues and ensuring stable data processing. Increased backend test coverage by 58% using MUnit, strengthening system reliability and minimizing regression defects in production. Built and maintained CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, enabling automated testing, deployment, and faster release cycles across multiple environments. Owned backend features end-to-end (design → development → deployment → production support), including schema evolution, API enhancements, and issue resolution. Collaborated with cross-functional teams to troubleshoot production issues, analyze logs, and optimize performance in a distributed microservices architecture.

About

I'm a Backend Software Engineer at Avlino, where I build production backend systems for container terminal logistics using Scala, Kafka, MongoDB, and Docker. My work focuses on distributed systems, real-time event processing, REST APIs, caching strategies, and performance optimization. I've designed Kafka-based data pipelines, configuration-driven processing engines, and runtime reservation caches to solve concurrency and operational challenges. Outside work, I enjoy exploring system design, distributed systems, and solving algorithmic problems (860+ LeetCode solutions). I also write about backend engineering to deepen my understanding of scalable architectures. I'm always interested in connecting with engineers working on high-scale backend systems.
