What I'm looking for

I seek a senior technical role leading backend/cloud engineering efforts where I can architect scalable microservices, improve CI/CD and mentor teams within a collaborative, product-focused company.

I am a Lead Java Developer with 12+ years building and supporting enterprise and cloud-based applications, focused on Java, Spring Boot, and microservices.

I have architected and scaled complex backend systems, led API design and integrations with third-party systems, and championed event-driven services and distributed caching to improve performance and reliability.

I bring hands-on experience with AWS (EC2, S3, RDS), Docker and Kubernetes, and strong CI/CD practices using Jenkins and GitHub Actions, driving automated pipelines and testing frameworks across teams.

I mentor developers, set coding guidelines and best practices, and collaborate cross-functionally to deliver resilient, high-performance systems aligned with product goals.
