Senior Java architect and tech lead specializing in microservices, cloud, and performance optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software architect and technical lead with 18+ years of experience designing, developing, and delivering large-scale Java/J2EE and Scala microservice solutions across cloud platforms like Azure and PCF. I have led architecture and implementation for e-commerce, logistics, and government projects, driving performance tuning, code quality (SonarQube), and cross-team technical direction.
My background includes hands-on development, technical solutioning, and managing offshore teams for end-to-end system implementations. I focus on pragmatic, measurable results—identifying performance bottlenecks using New Relic and Splunk, implementing fixes, and steering releases to production while mentoring teams and ensuring robust API-driven designs.
