Backend Software Engineer with hands-on experience in Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, REST APIs, and Kafka-based event-driven systems. Certified in AWS Cloud Operations with hands-on experience in CI/CD pipelines and distributed systems. Currently working as a Software Engineer at Fidelity Investments, building scalable and reliable backend systems for large-scale financial workflows. I design and develop Java and Spring Boot microservices that process 100K+ transactions daily, focusing on performance, fault tolerance, and clean system design. My work includes building and maintaining RESTful APIs, integrating internal services, and implementing Kafka-driven event pipelines for efficient and resilient transaction processing.I hold a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Engineering from SRM University. I bring strong experience in system reliability, scalability, and observability, with hands-on work in centralized logging, monitoring, and alerting to improve issue diagnosis and reduce MTTR. I’m passionate about backend engineering, event-driven architecture, and collaborating across teams to deliver production-ready, high-quality software systems.

Software Engineer at Fidelity Investments, Aug 2025 - Present · 1 yr 1 mo, Bangalore Urban, Engineered and deployed Kafka consumers with custom error-handling mechanisms, processing 100K+ events daily across multiple topics, improving data reliability and production observability. Optimized Spring Boot microservices by implementing ADS/token caching, concurrent checks, and enhanced health checks, reducing response times by 50–65%.– Implemented a multi-region database resiliency framework using AWS Event Scheduler, AWS Lambda, Spring Boot, DynamoDB, and Oracle to automatically detect outages and synchronize cross-region data, processing up to 120K records per run and eliminating manual failover. Automated CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Terraform across SIT, UAT, and PERF environments. Implemented hash-based change detection logic within the Oracle persistence layer to update only modified records, minimizing unnecessary writes and improving data accuracy by 30%.– Implemented a retry framework in a Spring Batch application to reprocess failed accounts, validated through JUnit tests, improving fault tolerance by 40% and automating recovery for 90% of failed transactions. Performed debugging and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for production issues across distributed microservices and Kafka-based systems, improving incident resolution time.
Executive Graduate Trainee at Fidelity Investments, Aug 2024 - Jul 2025 · 1 yr, India, Implemented retry, recovery, and failure-handling mechanisms, reducing manual intervention incidents by ~30% and improving overall system reliability. Contributed to performance optimizations by improving concurrency handling and service logic, achieving up to 40–50% improvement in processing time for critical flows. Actively participated in design reviews, code reviews, testing, and production releases, collaborating with cross-functional teams (QA, DevOps, Product) in an agile environment.
Full Stack Engineer Internship at Fidelity Investments, Feb 2024 - Jun 2024 · 5 mos, – Delivered RESTful transaction APIs in Spring Boot, improving reconciliation accuracy by 25%. – Built recovery workflows using Spring Batch, cutting recovery time by 50%. – Enhanced test coverage from 70% to 90% through 50+ JUnit cases, boosting deployment reliability. – Executed chaos testing with Jenkins + Datadog, identifying 5+ resiliency gaps and improving system stability.
Full Stack Engineer Internship at Fidelity Investments, Jun 2023 - Jul 2023 · 2 mos, – Developed a scalable Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) layer in Spring Boot, reducing API latency by 40%. – Enabled modern integration by wrapping legacy SOAP APIs into RESTful endpoints.
