About

Senior Backend Engineer with 7+ years of experience designing and building scalable distributed systems and microservices architectures using Java and Spring Boot. I have delivered large-scale platform initiatives including a zero-downtime migration of 30M+ records (600GB+), and built asynchronous messaging systems processing 1,000+ messages/sec using queue-based architectures, retry strategies, and DLQ patterns. My experience includes designing and operating high-throughput backend platforms across 50+ microservices, supporting systems with 100K+ daily active users. I focus on backend reliability, observability, performance optimization, and cost-efficient infrastructure. Key areas of expertise include: • Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs • Microservices & Distributed Systems • Asynchronous Messaging (ActiveMQ) • System Design & Backend Scalability • Cloud Platforms (AWS) • Observability, Monitoring & Performance Tuning I enjoy solving scalability and distributed system challenges and building reliable backend platforms. Currently open to Senior Backend Engineer / Platform Engineer roles in product-based companies.
