## About

```text
At turntabl, I built CRM and compliance workflow POCs using Spring Boot and Spring AI for real-time LLM inference, helping support live partner negotiations. I deployed these solutions to Kubernetes with Helm and ArgoCD for automated delivery.

Previously, I built payment-integrated storefront services at Wahu Mobility and designed distributed Java/Spring Cloud systems at AmaliTech, including a configurable GPU server platform. I bring nearly three years of experience across Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, GCP, AWS, CI/CD, and agile delivery, backed by KCNA and AWS Cloud Practitioner certifications.
