What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Java/Spring microservices role where I can build reliable backend and responsive UIs, own CI/CD with Kubernetes on AWS, and partner with product teams in Agile to deliver measurable performance and quality improvements.

I bring 5+ years of software development experience across requirements analysis, design, coding, testing, and production support for scalable, multi-tier, distributed fault-tolerant applications. I work comfortably across agile methodologies, including TDD and Scrum, with a strong focus on clean architecture and reliability.

I’m especially strong in Core Java and Spring ecosystems, building microservices with Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Spring Security, Spring Data/JPA, and Hibernate. I’ve implemented resilience patterns such as the circuit breaker with Hystrix fallback, built event-driven flows with Kafka (and Active MQ), and developed RESTful APIs that integrate smoothly with front-end applications.

I also own the delivery side—CI/CD with Jenkins, build automation using Maven/Gradle, deployment on Docker and Kubernetes, and monitoring with Log4j, Splunk, Dynatrace, and New Relic. From performance tuning to comprehensive testing (JUnit/Mockito/TestNG, Selenium/Cucumber), I help teams ship faster while keeping quality and stability high.
