About

Hi there! 👋 I'm a software engineer with over 6.5 years of experience, having worked across cloud platforms and commerce systems — with a focus on backend development, system integration, and platform automation. During my software engineering career, I’ve worked with a wide range of programming languages, libraries, frameworks, and tools including Java, C++, JavaScript, REST, GraphQL, Spring Boot, Postman, Playwright, BDD/Cucumber, Jenkins, Git, GitHub Copilot, JIRA, Docker, Kubernetes, Microservices, MongoDB, Cursor AI, CI/CD, and Splunk. At Adobe, I’ve built scalable backend services, internal automation platforms, and CI/CD-driven workflows that support global commerce operations and real-time content syncing. I've contributed to feature development that improved test coverage, reduced post-release defects, automated subsystem validations, and enabled seamless integration across distributed systems. I enjoy solving engineering problems at the intersection of backend scalability, developer efficiency, and automation — and I’m always looking to contribute to systems that scale with clarity and purpose. Let’s connect and explore opportunities to collaborate, share insights, or build together.
