What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth in backend development and cloud technologies.

I am a Backend Engineer with over 2 years of hands-on experience in building scalable, secure, and high-performance backend systems within the fintech domain. My expertise lies in Java (11+), Spring Boot, and cloud-native microservices architecture, complemented by a deep understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design.

At Airtel Payments Bank, I modernized a 7-module Spring Boot project, engineered secure APIs, and designed scalable components within a microservices architecture. My commitment to performance tuning and security compliance has led to significant improvements, including a 40% reduction in vulnerabilities and a 30% decrease in production issue resolution time. I thrive on challenges and am passionate about creating solutions that balance performance, maintainability, and compliance.
