What I'm looking for

I want to work on production backend systems that value reliability, event-driven microservices, and measurable performance improvements. I’m excited to ship well-tested APIs and grow by building GenAI features with secure, scalable engineering.

I’m a Software Engineer focused on building scalable, fault-tolerant enterprise applications and microservices using Java 21, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. In production backend systems, I delivered measurable outcomes like 30% API latency reduction, 40% faster workflow processing, and 99.9% uptime while handling 10,000+ daily transactions.

I’m especially motivated by event-driven architecture and reliable workflows—using Apache Kafka, Camunda BPM, and Azure Service Bus for orchestration and guaranteed delivery. I also build GenAI features with Spring AI and OpenAI APIs, bringing context-aware chat and image generation into secure, well-tested services that integrate cleanly with modern UIs.
