About

With over 9 years in software engineering and more than 3 years in team leading, I bring a strong mix of hands-on development, architecture design, and team mentorship that drives technical excellence and business impact. In my recent role as a Senior Software Engineer and Technical Lead, I have: Led teams to deliver distributed, highly available systems for real-time gaming, ensuring zero-downtime deployments and high scalability. Designed stateless architectures and automated scaling strategies to improve system resilience and cost efficiency. Migrated critical services to AWS-based solutions, improving fault tolerance and reducing major outages. Mentored engineers and promoted best practices, enabling technical growth and stronger delivery culture. My expertise spans Core Java, Spring Boot, distributed systems, event-driven architectures, AWS, Kubernetes, and relational/no-SQL databases like Aurora, MySQL, and Cassandra. I am equally comfortable driving architectural discussions, leading cross-functional teams, and contributing hands-on to critical development tasks.
