IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer focused on building scalable, low-latency systems and modern front-end experiences. At JP Morgan Chase & Co., I developed and maintained Compensation Management features for a 300,000+ user base, architecting event-driven notification infrastructure with Redis PUB/SUB and Server-Sent Events (SSE).
I optimized critical data-fetch paths with Redis caching to cut peak CPU and memory by 75% despite 5% year-on-year usage growth. I also transformed a legacy on-prem application into AWS-based cloud architecture using ECS and Lambda, and modernized a JSP/PLSQL monolith into React micro-frontend and Spring Boot micro-service architecture.
I enjoy solving problems end-to-end—from translating complex Figma designs into maintainable React components (Annual Compensation Hub) to building productivity-focused automation with AI agents using Jira MCP and Snyk MCP integrations. Earlier at Societe Generale Global Solution Centre, I delivered an Audit Trail micro-service integration that increased adoption by 30% and improved search efficiency by reducing manual work by 60%.
