I am a software engineer with 15+ years building cloud-native Java/J2EE microservices and scalable data solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a software engineer with 15+ years of experience building enterprise-scale, cloud-native applications using the Java/J2EE ecosystem. I specialize in translating complex business requirements into scalable, maintainable architectures that prioritize reliability and performance.
At JPMorgan Chase I led teams to architect and deliver automation and microservices solutions; one automation system I designed reduced manual efforts by 70% while providing robust auditing and retry mechanisms. I build user-friendly UIs with ReactJS and Node.js and implement resilient back-end services that handle operational failures gracefully.
I have driven event-driven solutions using Kafka that improved reconciliation accuracy by 90% and migrated monolithic systems to cloud-based microservices using Azure Queues and Cassandra. I also developed high-performance components such as a price calculator and validation system leveraging Redis for low-latency operations.
I deliver end-to-end solutions from concept to production with an emphasis on code quality, system reliability, and maintainable architectures. I enjoy mentoring engineers, owning technical designs, and building teams that produce measurable business impact.
