## About

```text
At Teamworks, I develop and maintain Java and Spring Boot backend services, resolve defects across repositories, and contribute to modernizing Java-based search services with the OpenSearch Java Client.

I also developed multi-site event cloning and a scheduled PayPal approval reporting workflow that generates Excel reports and distributes them by email. I added automated test coverage and supported releases through GitHub Actions pipelines and GCP test environments.

At IBM, I designed REST APIs with Java and Spring Boot and optimized PostgreSQL and MongoDB queries and transactions. I also integrated Kafka and Redis, and developed CI/CD pipelines using AWS, IBM Cirrus, Jenkins, Kubernetes, and Docker/Podman.

Across earlier roles, I built Java microservices and REST APIs, contributed to a sustainability and sanitation system using TypeScript, and developed an access control system for police departments using PHP, JavaScript, and PostgreSQL. I have also explored AI tools and used WatsonX AI to generate summaries matching professionals to open IBM project seats.
