About

I’m a Lead Java Full-Stack Engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance systems across FinTech, Healthcare, and E-commerce.I specialize in Java, Spring Boot, and microservices architecture, with a strong focus on event-driven systems, real-time processing, and low-latency applications. I’ve designed and delivered distributed systems that handle high-volume workloads using Kafka, Redis, and asynchronous processing.My experience includes building secure REST APIs, optimizing database performance, and developing cloud-native applications on AWS and Azure with modern CI/CD pipelines and containerized deployments.I also bring full-stack experience with React.js, enabling me to deliver end-to-end solutions when needed.I’m passionate about solving complex engineering problems and building systems that scale reliably in production.
