About

I am a Senior Software Engineer specializing in the Fullstack Java domain, and have relevant experience building scalable, high-performing platforms within the fintech and enterprise spaces. I focus primarily in Java, Spring Boot, Microservices architecture, SQL/NoSQL databases, cloud technologies (AWS/Azure), Kafka, and the React basics. I enjoy solving business problems in the form of clean system design, strong engineering fundamentals, and intentional action. In my current position I have designed and delivered end-to-end distributed systems, enhanced performance of critical services, and provided architectural feedback and guidance between teams. Recently I have also been working on Gen-AI based automation and developer-productivity software to enhance developer productivity, including LLM-based code assistants, intelligent data retrieval, and workflow optimization tool. I enjoy mentorship to my teammates, venture into cross-functional collaboration, with the goal of building an engineering culture of ownership, clarity, and high standards. Always open to the opportunity to learn, build, and pursue potential engineering challenges that will have a positive impact.
