I build high-traffic Java microservices and event-driven platforms that improve performance and reliability.

At Carry1st, I architect Java 21 and Spring Boot 3 microservices on AWS EKS for high-traffic e-commerce systems processing 10M+ events per day. I improved throughput and reduced latency by 35% through Kubernetes resource optimization and application tuning while supporting 99.9% uptime with Elastic APM observability.

I build resilient event-driven systems using RabbitMQ and Kafka, containerize services with Docker, and deliver zero-downtime releases through Jenkins, JFrog Artifactory, Helm, and Argo CD. I've also shipped a production AI chatbot using Python, Sentence Transformers, and an on-prem LLaMA model, plus a KNN recommendation engine that increased cross-sell conversions.

Across Carry1st, Citibank, Varian Medical Systems, Sears Holdings India, Cybage Software, and Atos India, I've led architecture reviews, mentored developers, modernized monoliths into microservices, and optimized enterprise systems for scale and low latency.
