What I'm looking for

I am seeking backend or platform roles focusing on scalable Java microservices, strong DevOps/CI-CD practices, and opportunities to lead architecture and improve system reliability.

I am a detail-oriented and results-driven Java developer with approximately 7 years of professional experience building scalable, enterprise-level web applications. I specialize in Core Java (Java 8/17), Spring Boot, Spring MVC, RESTful APIs, and microservices architectures, with strong backend and database expertise.

I have delivered measurable impact by designing systems such as a Global OneTouch Callout that increased scheduling efficiency by 30%, engineering a Keycloak-based Central Authentication Service, developing Kafka-based data-filtering tools, and leading decomposition of monoliths into microservices to improve scalability and maintainability.

I champion best practices including TDD and DDD (reducing bug reports by 25%), implemented CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and Docker (cutting deployment time by 40%), and have hands-on experience with MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Kibana, Docker, AWS, and related tooling.
