About

Java Backend Engineer / Software Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, and operating distributed microservices and RESTful APIs in high-throughput, production financial-services environments.

Proven track record: architected 8+ production microservices (Java, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud) processing 50,000+ transactions/day at 99.9% uptime; cut API latency 35% through database query optimization and indexing; reduced downstream API load 40% via Redis distributed caching; improved release velocity 40% through CI/CD automation with Docker and Kubernetes; and reduced incident resolution time (MTTR) 25% through production observability. Strong foundation in event-driven architecture (Apache Kafka), secure API design (OAuth2/JWT/RBAC), test-driven development (JUnit, Mockito, 90%+ coverage), and cloud infrastructure (AWS). Certified in Prompt Engineering, with working knowledge of AI-assisted software development practices.

Experience

Software Engineer II, Java Backend Developer at Infosys Limited (2022-06 – 2025-08)

Enterprise Financial Risk Platform — Real-Time Credit Scoring System (Tier-1 Banking Client)

Architected and developed 8+ production RESTful microservices using Java 8+, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud, processing 50,000+ daily credit evaluations for 300+ bank officers at 99.9% uptime SLA.
Eliminated MySQL database bottlenecks through compound indexing and query refactoring across 10M+ records, reducing API latency from 800ms to 520ms — a 35% improvement under peak load.
Built a fault-tolerant Apache Kafka event-streaming pipeline ingesting 60,000+ events/day, enabling sub-second risk recalculations and eliminating batch-processing delays.
Designed and implemented a Redis distributed caching layer achieving a 90%+ cache hit rate, reducing downstream API calls by 40% and significantly boosting system throughput.
Implemented OAuth2 and JWT-based authentication with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) via Spring Security across 8 microservices, maintaining zero security incidents in production.
Built CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Docker with zero-downtime Kubernetes deployments, improving release cycle speed by 40%.
Deployed production observability using Log4j2 structured logging and Splunk, reducing mean-time-to-resolution (MTTR) by 25%; standardized Swagger/OpenAPI documentation across 4 engineering squads.
Achieved 90%+ automated test coverage using JUnit 5 and Mockito following Test-Driven Development (TDD) practices, reducing production defects by 30% quarter-over-quarter.
