I’m a Java Backend Developer focused on scalable REST APIs and distributed systems built with Spring Boot and microservices architecture. I’ve worked on service discovery, centralized configuration, and asynchronous messaging with RabbitMQ, while grounding my work in strong OOP and enterprise-grade API design.

In my Fitness Microservice project, I architected a production-style microservices backend with an Activity Service, AI Service, and API Gateway using Spring Cloud Eureka and Spring Cloud Config. I implemented an event-driven pipeline with RabbitMQ and integrated the Google Gemini AI API to generate structured fitness recommendations from JSON responses.

I also built a Student Management System with RESTful CRUD APIs, server-side pagination, dynamic sorting, and consistent responses via centralized exception handling (@ControllerAdvice). I secured endpoints using Spring Security (HTTP Basic Authentication and BCrypt password encryption), containerized with Docker, and documented APIs with Swagger/OpenAPI 3 for smooth integration and testing.
