Nimishakavi Saikrishna

I’m a results-driven Java backend developer with 4+ years of professional experience, focused on building clean, reliable Spring Boot systems. I thrive on developing RESTful APIs, integrating services, and troubleshooting production issues with a strong analytical mindset.

In my work optimizing legacy Spring applications at Morgan Stanley, I used Talend ETL, Apache Kafka, and robust data validation workflows to improve performance by 70%. I designed and supported high-volume securities processing pipelines (1M+ records daily), built Kafka clusters for low-latency processing, and led root-cause analysis to reduce recurring data discrepancies.

I also owned reconciliation engines and end-to-end validation across QA and Production, coordinating fixes when discrepancies appeared. I strengthened delivery quality through automated regression testing (Cucumber + Java + Kafka + Talend validations) and implemented secure REST APIs following Swagger/OpenAPI standards.

I’m comfortable working across the SDLC in Agile/Scrum, collaborating with global teams, and mentoring junior developers. I’m also exploring modern AI concepts like RAG and agentic frameworks (AutoGen, CrewAI) alongside backend architecture and distributed systems.
