What I'm looking for

I am seeking backend/cloud roles where I can build resilient, scalable systems, drive automation and observability, and work on distributed architectures with strong engineering practices.

I am a Backend Software Engineer with 3 years of experience building scalable microservices and RESTful APIs using Java and Spring Boot. I have worked on cloud-native, event-driven systems deployed on AWS, focusing on performance, reliability, and clean architecture.

At Staples, I developed backend services for product catalog and order workflows in a distributed microservices architecture. I built secure REST APIs, implemented asynchronous processing with Kafka, optimized MongoDB queries (reducing latency by 70%), and contributed to CI/CD pipelines that cut manual release efforts by 50%. I also handled end-to-end ownership—from design and development to deployment and production support.

Previously at AWS, I worked on RDS Data API services, improving system efficiency by 20%, strengthening test coverage to 85% using JUnit and Mockito, and automating deployments with AWS CodePipeline and CodeBuild. I collaborated across the full SDLC, ensuring scalability, backward compatibility, and zero-downtime releases.

Technically, I am strong in core Java, OOP, Spring Boot (MVC, Data, REST), PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker, AWS (EC2, RDS, S3), CI/CD, and unit testing. I am also comfortable working with event-driven systems and distributed architectures.

Beyond work, I am deeply interested in system design, clean code practices, and scalable backend architectures. I continuously improve my skills through learning advanced Java concepts, design patterns, and cloud best practices.
