Manish Patel
@manishpatel1
Senior software engineer specializing in high-concurrency backend, reactive streaming, and cloud-native microservices.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience building high-concurrency backend architectures, real-time data streaming, and cloud-native microservices. I lead architectural modernization—migrating legacy systems to high-performance REST architectures—and I document decisions through Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) to keep delivery scalable and aligned.
I’m deeply proficient in the Java/Spring ecosystem and reactive programming, using distributed caching (Hazelcast) to deliver sub-second latencies for mission-critical financial systems. I’ve designed IBM MQ–backed ingestion layers and messaging-driven services that support 1M+ daily transactions, including reliable MQ-to-REST redesigns that improve reliability while reducing infrastructure overhead.
Across my roles, I’ve driven measurable impact: cutting dashboard latency, accelerating real-time order updates via WebSockets, orchestrating automated ETL with Airflow into Snowflake, and improving engineering quality with BDD, automated testing, and SonarQube. I also mentor cross-functional teams end-to-end—from requirement gathering to stakeholder alignment and deployment—while actively reducing technical debt through pragmatic performance tuning.
