About

Senior Java Backend Engineer with 5 years of experience building and owning enterprise-grade backend systems in insurance and financial services. I specialize in Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, microservices, and secure system design, with deep hands-on experience in Allianz Business System (ABS). I’ve delivered measurable impact, including: • ~20% reduction in API response times through backend and query optimization • ~40% reduction in data processing time via custom encryption/decryption logic My journey started with writing APIs and handling production issues, giving me a strong foundation in system reliability and root-cause analysis. Over time, I took ownership of critical backend modules, influenced architectural decisions, and collaborated closely with product, QA, and platform teams to balance performance, security, and maintainability. I enjoy solving real-world backend problems, optimizing systems that run at scale, and helping teams ship reliable software to production. I’m actively open to international backend or platform engineering opportunities where I can drive performance, security, and scalability. Open to relocation. Let’s connect to exchange ideas, collaborate, or discuss backend and platform engineering roles.
