About

I am a Backend and Platform Engineer with over 9 years of experience in designing, developing, and maintaining scalable and secure backend solutions for SaaS platforms across industries like healthcare, retail, telecom, and manufacturing. My core expertise lies in Java and Spring Boot, particularly in delivering microservices that drive the efficiency, high availability, and security of cloud-hosted applications. I have a strong track record in Identity and Access Management (IAM), ensuring the secure and seamless integration of enterprise applications. I excel at translating complex business requirements into technical solutions, delivering APIs and access controls that optimize user access and data protection. My work with Azure services has helped businesses enhance service availability, streamline cloud operations, and accelerate feature rollouts through CI/CD pipelines. As a consultant and lead engineer, I’ve spearheaded key initiatives that resulted in improved issue resolution times and platform stability in production environments. I’m particularly skilled in root cause analysis, troubleshooting, and building efficient processes that lead to significant reductions in downtime and support-related incidents. Passionate about continuous learning, I thrive in Agile environments and collaborate with cross-functional teams to drive meaningful change. Whether mentoring junior developers or liaising with stakeholders, my goal is always to improve operational continuity and deliver high-performance solutions. Technical Expertise: ->Languages & Frameworks: Java, Python, Spring Boot, Hibernate, ReactJS ->Databases & Cloud: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Azure SQL, Microsoft Azure ->Services: RESTful APIs, Microservices, CI/CD, IAM ->Tools: Eclipse, STS, Git, Maven, Postman, SQLyog I am always looking for new challenges where I can leverage my skills to create efficient, secure, and high-performing systems that make a lasting impact.
