Software Engineer at IBM building credential synchronization across ~90 connectors and cloud-native backend systems.

India
Message

At IBM India Software Labs, I designed and developed a credential synchronization platform using Node.js and React. It connects credential-provider change notifications with IBM Cloud Secrets Manager to synchronize updated connection parameters across approximately 90 connectors, reducing release-blocking test failures caused by stale credentials by more than 60%.

I also implemented HashiCorp Vault on an IBM Fyre VM to supply credentials securely to FIPS testing, eliminating the need to store or pass raw credentials through the pipeline. Under a senior architect’s technical direction, I implemented Kafka-based streaming for payment workflow orchestration, improving throughput by 50%.

For IBM Controller, I developed Java/Spring Boot microservices and REST APIs, and helped containerize and deploy services with Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. I also resolved production and modernization issues by tracing failures across application, build, database, and network-security layers.

My selected project is an enterprise REST connector generation framework that turns OpenAPI specifications into connectors. I built a standalone Java framework, validated it with a GitLab REST connector, and integrated local open-source models for LLM-assisted code generation in a restricted enterprise environment.
