Software Engineer at Coforge building AWS integration middleware for a US identity platform.
What I'm looking for
At Coforge, I built integration middleware for a mission-critical US identity platform serving B2B and government consumers. I added a Lambda authorizer in front of API Gateway and delivered an outbound export path for government consumers.
At Encora Inc., I replaced monolithic Java 17 Lambdas with decoupled Node.js services orchestrated by Step Functions. I also put biometric workflows on WebSockets and Amazon SQS to move processing off the synchronous API path.
At Encora Inc., I built an event-driven ETL on S3, EventBridge, and Step Functions that moved millions of records, with retries and CloudWatch alerts. I also delivered React/Next.js interfaces and Node.js APIs with UX and QA.
Earlier, at Iochpe-Maxion S.A., I promoted process redesign across plant and administrative workflows and supported IT infrastructure part-time. My academic projects included a B2B e-commerce marketplace and a chatbot for e-commerce shoppers with visual impairments.
