What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a leadership role where I can design and deliver scalable Java microservices on Kubernetes, own event-driven architectures, and integrate GenAI/LLMs into production-ready backend services—while coaching teams on high-quality delivery.

I’m a Technical Lead with 15+ years of experience building Java-based, high-performance backend systems. I specialize in Java and Spring Boot microservices architecture, combining clean system design with strong execution in cloud-native environments.

In my current role at TCS (Associate Consultant / Technical Lead), I design and develop scalable microservices, architect event-driven systems with Kafka and Google Cloud Pub/Sub, and deploy on Kubernetes using Helm for auto-scaling and high availability. I also streamline delivery through CI/CD pipelines (Azure Pipelines), and improve operational safety with Azure Key Vault and GCP Secret Manager for secure configuration management.

I’ve led teams and driven architecture decisions across the stack—REST APIs, system performance, and production releases—while accelerating development with GitHub Copilot. I’m also actively working on GenAI integrations (Spring AI + LLMs) through AI-powered services like an “AI Knowledge Assistant,” and I hold AWS Certified Developer (Associate) and CKAD.
