What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build scalable Java/Spring microservices and REST APIs, deliver event-driven systems with Kafka, develop responsive React UIs, and support AWS-based CI/CD deployments in an enterprise environment.

I’m a Full Stack Java Developer with 4+ years of experience building scalable applications in enterprise environments, including Plaid (USA) and Credmint. I design and develop full stack solutions using Java and Spring Boot, with a strong focus on maintainable microservices architecture.

I specialize in distributed backend systems, API integrations, and event-driven architecture using Apache Kafka. I work with Hibernate, JPA, and JDBC for reliable persistence, and I write optimized SQL queries for MySQL databases to improve performance and response times.

On the frontend, I build responsive interfaces with React.js, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, and TypeScript. I also support data-driven reporting with Power BI (DAX, Power Query) and deployment workflows using AWS (EC2, S3, RDS), Maven/Gradle, Git, and CI/CD pipelines—backed by multiple Microsoft certifications.
