I build high-throughput Java backend platforms, APIs, and Spring Boot services.

I've built backend platforms for TimesJobs, Magicbricks, Ads2Book, and Hire.TimesJobs at Times Business Solutions/Coolboots Media. My work includes recruiter tools, job search and filtering, CRM modules, KYC uploads, payment integrations, and resume delivery services.

I designed a Spring Batch and Kafka email-dispatch platform capable of sending over 1,000,000 emails per hour, and revamped a legacy VB.NET rate algorithm in Java to improve performance 10x. I use AI coding assistants including Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT to accelerate debugging, testing, documentation, and delivery.
