@janishselvaraj
I am a senior software engineer specializing in backend microservices and cloud-native deployments.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer with a B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli and a strong background in Java, Spring, microservices, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure). I design and deliver end-to-end features, enabled log-based alerting with Grafana, added Prometheus metrics, implemented GitHub Actions to reduce manual effort by 80%, and piloted a customer-value service expanding to nearly 150 dealerships.
I focus on performance optimization and operational excellence—leading code refactoring that produced an 80% reduction in 5xx errors and an Elastic index merge yielding a 25% cost reduction—while mentoring junior developers and driving best practices in testing, deployment, and observability.
