What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable backend and full-stack products in a collaborative Agile environment, with opportunities to deepen my work in distributed systems, backend architecture, cloud technologies, and AI-integrated platforms.

At Tata Consultancy Services, I build Angular web applications and Java, Spring Boot, and Hibernate backend services. I've improved API response times by 30–50%, migrated monolithic modules to microservices, and automated releases from monthly to weekly with Jenkins CI/CD.

I also built BeTheHope, a real-time blood donor finder that reduced API latency by 67% using Redis, with RabbitMQ and WebSockets powering live notifications. I'm drawn to backend architecture, distributed systems, and end-to-end products that solve real user problems.
