What I'm looking for

I'm seeking senior Java/J2EE roles building scalable microservices and enterprise systems in collaborative teams that value architecture, CI/CD, and mentoring.

I am a Principal Software Engineer specializing in Java/J2EE, Spring Boot, Hibernate, and microservices, focused on building scalable enterprise applications.

I have designed and delivered fraud detection and case management systems, leveraging ElasticSearch, HighCharts, JBPM, and SAML for real-time analytics and secure SSO. I architect solutions across AWS, Azure, and GCP to ensure high availability and performance.

I lead cross-functional teams and collaborate closely with QA, DevOps, and business stakeholders to implement CI/CD (Maven, TeamCity), optimize database performance, and monitor systems with Kibana. I improve system response times through query tuning and microservice optimization.

I seek senior roles where I can drive architecture, mentor engineers, and rapidly adopt new technologies to deliver measurable business value.
