Sai Kiran Lella

I am a Full Stack Java developer with 5+ years of experience designing and delivering secure, scalable cloud-native applications across finance, healthcare, and telecom. I specialize in Java, Spring Boot, and ReactJS, and I actively apply cloud skills in AWS and Azure.

My work centers on building RESTful microservices, event-driven systems using Kafka, and implementing robust CI/CD with Docker, Jenkins, and Kubernetes to ensure reliable, automated delivery. I prioritize clean code, performance optimization, and high test coverage to reduce defects and improve system reliability.

At Citi, I developed real-time payment microservices, improved dashboarding and caching to reduce transaction handling time and database load, and automated zero-downtime deployments with blue-green strategies. Previously at CVS and Infosys I built scalable member/provider and financial transaction platforms, automated infrastructure provisioning, and integrated enterprise security and compliance controls.

I hold industry certifications (OCP Java SE 11, Azure Developer Associate, AWS Developer – Associate, CKAD) and an M.S. in Information Technology. I mentor junior engineers, lead code reviews, and collaborate cross-functionally to deliver business-driven software solutions.
