What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that emphasizes security in software development, offers opportunities for growth, and fosters a collaborative team environment.

I am a Senior Java Full Stack Developer with a strong focus on security, specializing in building secure and scalable APIs. With extensive experience in Java 17+, Spring Boot 3, and cloud-native architectures, I have successfully designed and developed secure REST APIs and implemented robust authentication flows using OAuth2 and JWT.

Throughout my career, I have migrated monolithic legacy APIs to cloud-native microservices, developed CI/CD pipelines, and led security compliance audits to ensure alignment with PCI DSS and OWASP Top 10 standards. My expertise extends to containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, as well as automating infrastructure deployments using Terraform.

I am passionate about mentoring teams on secure coding practices and have a proven track record of optimizing database interactions and implementing event-driven microservices for real-time workflows. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can contribute to innovative solutions and enhance security measures across applications.
