Backend Engineer @ Apple (via Infosys) | Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, Elasticsearch, Microservices | Building scalable, event-driven systems

About

Backend engineer who enjoys understanding how systems work under the hood and making them simpler, faster, and more reliable. I work primarily in Java and Spring Boot, with a growing focus on distributed, event-driven systems — Kafka, Elasticsearch, and the tradeoffs that come with moving from monoliths to microservices. I value clarity and clean engineering practices over quick shortcuts, and I like going deep rather than wide — understanding why a system behaves the way it does, not just shipping around it. Outside of client work, I build things end-to-end on my own time to stay sharp on distributed systems fundamentals and keep learning past what my day-to-day role requires. I enjoy collaborating with people who care about their craft, and I'm always happy to talk backend architecture, system design, or engineering tradeoffs. Currently exploring opportunities at product-focused teams where I can grow alongside strong engineers.

Work experience

Specialist programmer at Infosys, Aug 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 4 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Software Engineer at Infosys Limited (Client: Apple Inc.), Aug 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 4 mos, - Led migration of Apple's Territory Management platform (managing Apple Retail regions, countries, and stores globally) from monolith to microservices, reducing system complexity by 40% and improving DB query performance by 35% through optimized indexing and query restructuring. - Engineered an automated bulk quote submission system for NPI date processing, replacing manual submissions with an admin-triggered batch pipeline; used Server-Sent Events (SSE) to stream real-time progress to all active dashboard users, Elasticsearch for quote retrieval, and Apache Kafka for event-driven messaging. Validated throughput and latency under concurrent load with JMeter before rollout. - Modernized the platform stack: Java 17 → Java 21, Hibernate ORM → Spring Data JPA with custom projections (50% less boilerplate); introduced ShedLock with database-level locking for exactly-once cron execution across horizontally scaled instances. - Designed RESTful microservices following SOLID principles, using JPA Specifications for dynamic querying and DTO projections — 30% faster API responses, reduced network payload.

Software Engineer Intern at Zapplogics Solutions, Jan 2024 - Jun 2024 · 6 mos, • Developed an admin dashboard for e-commerce platform managing 10+ operations (inventory, orders, analytics), improving administrative efficiency by 30% through streamlined Spring Boot APIs and optimized database queries. • Collaborated with teams to integrate React front-end with backend services, implementing RESTful endpoints and improving platform performance by 20%.
