What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build secure, event-driven microservices in Java/Spring and help automate cloud infrastructure with Terraform and CI/CD—working with a team that values clean engineering, ownership, and measurable impact.

I’m a computer science engineering student who loves turning ideas into production-ready microservices—secure by design, scalable by default, and measurable in impact. I focus on REST APIs, event-driven architecture, and strong security primitives like JWT, Spring Security, and encryption.

In my recent role as Tech Head at the Bennett Springer Club, I lead technical initiatives and manage the technology stack and developer community.

As a Spring Boot backend developer intern, I built and maintained production-grade backend features for an EdTech platform, integrating JWT-based authentication and role-based access control with clean, reliable RESTful APIs.

My projects reflect my mix of backend engineering and DevOps: distributed systems with Kafka and Redis rate limiting,

I’m energized by work that bridges academia and real-world delivery, and I’m always eager to build secure systems that help users trust the data they rely on.
