What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend role focused on distributed systems and real-time data pipelines—where I can design event-driven architectures, build scalable services on AWS, and ship production-ready microservices with Docker and Kubernetes.

I’m a Backend Software Engineer with strong experience building scalable, high-performance systems and real-time data processing pipelines. I’ve developed distributed and event-driven architectures using Java and Spring Boot, integrating Kafka and Flink, and leveraging Redis and HBase for state and high-throughput data access.

In my recent work, I’ve built backend services for fleet management and ELD compliance with REST APIs, and designed a real-time speeding detection pipeline using Redis-based state management and automated alerting. I also deploy cloud-native systems on AWS (preferred) with Docker and Kubernetes, and I use AI coding agents like Claude Code to accelerate development, code review, refactoring, task automation, and debugging.
