About

Backend engineer with 7 years of experience building scalable and resilient distributed systems—currently at MPL, where I design and lead the development of real-time payments infrastructure powering millions of daily transactions. My expertise spans system design, microservices, and event-driven architectures, with hands-on work across API design, data modeling, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and Kafka-based streaming. I build cloud-native solutions using AWS, GCP, Docker, and Kubernetes, ensuring high availability and low-latency performance. I thrive on simplifying complex problems, scaling systems reliably, and driving end-to-end solutions in cross-functional teams. While I’ve worked extensively with Java and Spring Boot, I stay language-agnostic and focus on using the right tools for the right problems.
