About

Provide technical direction and system architecture expertise.
Developing APIs with spring boot.
Research software approaches, and implementations and come up with services that meet the intended goal.
Participated in requirements gathering and design development meetings- daily standups.
Developed applications using event-driven micro-service-based architecture.
I have handled exceptions for all levels of the applications, from the controller level, service level, and DTO level.
I have been able to use a wide range of databases from MySQL, PostgreSQL, and NoSQL databases such as MongoDB.
I have been able to use a version control system with Git and used GitLab and GitHub.
I have used a wide range of libraries in my development: I have used Reactive libraries, Spring Fox, and Web Flux.
I have been able to use the new library, Resilience4j which I learned is a replacement for Hystrix a library that offers quite a lot. I have worked with modules of Resilience4j such as Circuit-breaker, rate limiter, and Bulkhead and Retry.
I have been working on projects that require knowledge of java 8, streams, and functional programming. This was a crucial skill that when working with Web Flux is greatly required.
I have been to working with YAML files, banners, and spring boot.
I have been working with images and containers and sure learning or rather equipping myself with Docker skills was helpful. I realized Docker offers quite a lot that I could possibly think of. The idea of not locally installing libraries and rather, downloading images from Docker Hub and running them to connect with them was pretty cool to me.
I had a little intro to k8s, though there were guys handling that.

I have written unit tests and integration tests with Mockito and Junit 5.
