What I'm looking for
I am a backend-focused software engineer with 1.5+ years building scalable, high-reliability systems at Deloitte, specializing in microservices, event-driven architectures using Kafka, and secure REST APIs. I have owned end-to-end modules for Registration, Payments, and Collections, optimized performance to reduce API response times dramatically, and acted as a module SME collaborating with PMs, QA, and engineers to deliver requirements and resolve critical production issues.
