@thallitagyzik
Backend engineer delivering scalable, cloud-native Java systems for finance and tech.
What I'm looking for
I am a Backend Engineer with 6+ years building and optimizing enterprise-grade, cloud-native systems for global finance and technology companies. I specialize in Java (8/11/21), Spring, microservices, and AWS to deliver high-performance, secure APIs and backend services.
I have hands-on experience designing event-driven architectures using AWS Lambda, EventBridge, Step Functions, DynamoDB, and building resilient systems with Redis, Kafka, and PostgreSQL. I prioritize automation and reliability through CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab) and infrastructure as code with Terraform.
As a developer I leverage generative AI tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT to accelerate delivery, improve code quality, and streamline workflows. I have successfully contributed to large-scale projects in fintech, aviation, logistics, and payments while collaborating with distributed, cross-functional teams.
I am a pragmatic problem-solver who values engineering best practices, observability, and secure, zero-downtime deployments. I seek to deliver measurable business impact through scalable architectures, performance optimization, and continuous delivery.
