@anjuvarghese
Senior software developer specializing in enterprise API reliability and ITIL-aligned application support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Developer with 10+ years of software development and application support across insurance, banking, and telecom. I focus on incident investigation, root cause analysis, and bug resolution in production environments, keeping enterprise web applications and REST/SOAP APIs highly available.
In my recent role, I provided ongoing support for a microservices-based pension & investment platform built with Java and Spring Boot. I built and maintained RESTful API endpoints (JSON/XML), cut manual handling by 35%, improved response times by 40%, and reduced release cycle time by 40% with Docker and Kubernetes-based CI/CD pipelines.
I also led end-to-end support and development of an Agentless Automation platform at Etisalat Telecommunications, applying ITIL-aligned Change and Incident Management processes and mentoring agile teams. I’m collaborative in Agile/Scrum, comfortable working across technical and non-technical stakeholders, and fluent with JIRA, Confluence, and ServiceNow to track and deliver to SLAs.
