What I'm looking for

I seek cloud-native roles building scalable Java microservices and responsive front ends, with strong DevOps, observability, and opportunities to apply AI for product personalization and automation.

I am a Full Stack Software Engineer with 9+ years building scalable, cloud-native Java applications and responsive front ends. I design and deliver microservices architectures using Spring Boot, Docker, and Kubernetes across AWS, Azure, GCP and PCF.

I have led end-to-end development of real-time, event-driven systems (Kafka, Redis) and implemented security, observability and CI/CD practices that reduced release times and improved reliability. I’ve integrated Generative AI APIs into enterprise apps to enhance personalization and automation.

My experience spans financial services, healthcare, and payments where I modernized monoliths to microservices, optimized databases and built resilient, observable systems. I collaborate in Agile teams and focus on delivering measurable performance and business outcomes.
