## About

```text
At Cognizant Technology Solutions India Pvt. Ltd., I build Spring Boot REST APIs and microservices for enterprise platforms. My work includes a helpdesk and ticket management platform with JWT security, WebSocket notifications, Redis caching, and SLA monitoring.

For the Product Catalog Synchronization API, I developed a microservice exposing validated PLM catalog data and added caching that improved response times by more than 40%.

On the FlexPLM data migration and customization work, I built Core Java validation utilities that reduced manual verification from 5–6 hours to 30 minutes. I also automated reconciliation of 2,000+ products and developed a FlexPLM admin module that reduced support effort and ticket resolution time.

I bring software testing experience into backend development through validation and automated tests. Outside work, I built toGather, a platform for managing community tasks and events, and designed a smart walker capstone with AI-driven obstacle detection and assistive features.
