I am a Lead / Senior Software Engineer with nearly 15 years of experience designing and building scalable backend, cloud-native, event-driven, and full-stack enterprise applications.
My core expertise includes Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, REST APIs, Kafka, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Cassandra, Redis, React, React Native, TypeScript, and Distributed Systems.
Currently, I work as a Senior Software Engineer at Airties, focusing on AI-driven platforms for device intelligence, behavioral analytics, telemetry processing, and real-time risk assessment.
I actively contribute to open-source projects across the Java ecosystem, Spring ecosystem, backend engineering, developer tooling, cloud-native systems, test reliability, diagnostics, and code maintainability.
25+ merged PRs across Java/Spring ecosystem projects including Spring Boot, Spring Framework, Mockito, Jenkins, Byte Buddy, Apache Dubbo, Apache Seata, Micrometer, JUnit, Caffeine, Floci, and Testcontainers-related tooling.
Focus areas:
- Java modernization
- Test reliability
- Documentation clarity
- Type-safety improvements
- Framework-level code cleanup
- Diagnostics and developer experience
