Experienced software engineer specializing in backend development and optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated software engineer with over 8 years of experience in developing and optimizing backend systems. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, which laid the foundation for my technical expertise. At Cambridge University Press & Assessment, I honed my skills in REST API development, leveraging Java, Spring Boot, and AWS to enhance system performance and reduce operational costs. A notable achievement was implementing a data caching solution that led to a 30% reduction in database usage costs.
Throughout my career, I have consistently focused on improving system efficiency and response times. I led initiatives that resulted in a 40% improvement in web page response time and a 50% reduction in turnaround time for results processing. My collaborative approach has allowed me to work effectively with cross-functional teams, delivering high-quality solutions while ensuring stakeholder satisfaction. I take pride in my ability to mentor junior developers and conduct knowledge transfer sessions, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
