What I'm looking for

I'm actively seeking a Senior Software Engineer role in Berlin, Germany.

At J.P. Morgan Chase & Co, I architected a proxy management system for India UPI, connecting three backend systems through REST APIs and Kafka. It lets merchants manage multiple payment identifiers per account and cut reconciliation time by ~40%.

I also led defect lifecycle management for India UPI weekend deployments, driving post-incident reviews and preventive measures. Critical production bugs fell by 60%, while the system maintained 99.5% uptime during peak transaction hours.

At Mercedes-Benz R&D India, I built a Kotlin migration library for gradual, zero-downtime cutover from a legacy monolith to Spring Boot, and developed a file management component adopted across multiple microservices. I also delivered a structured data extraction microservice and completed a POC for an intelligent UI/UX review system that cut review processing time by 30%; I mentored junior engineers.
