Software Engineer specializing in scalable Java/Spring Boot backend systems, REST APIs, and resilient microservices.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing and delivering scalable backend systems, RESTful APIs, and microservices across healthcare, insurance, and financial services.
I specialize in Java, Spring Boot, and distributed systems, building high-throughput APIs and designing resilient backend architectures focused on high availability, fault tolerance, and scalability.
In my recent roles, I’ve optimized database queries and backend logic—reducing API response time by 25%—and implemented authentication, authorization, and security controls (JWT, OAuth2) to improve compliance and data protection.
I’m also hands-on with production delivery: CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions), logging and monitoring for observability, and Agile collaboration to deliver reliable, production-grade backend services.
