At Horizontal Digital, I design secure REST APIs and backend services in Java and Spring Boot for a financial services platform. I defined backend architecture, service communication patterns, and deployment workflows that enabled faster feature rollout across teams.

I improve production performance through database tuning, query optimization, caching, and debugging, reducing API response time by 35%. Previously at Ananta Services, I built backend services for the QuickHirez hiring platform and improved response time by 30% through indexing and query optimization.

Through freelance projects, I owned cloud-native backend architecture and AWS deployments for a role-based CRM platform, including EC2, RDS, S3, IAM, NGINX, and CI/CD. I also prototyped AI-assisted solutions for document classification and LLM-powered knowledge retrieval using Python and OpenAI.

I enjoy building reliable, high-performance systems with clean engineering practices, from secure APIs and microservices to real-time notifications, Redis caching, and AI-powered knowledge platforms.
