About

Backend Engineer with 6+ years of experience building scalable, event-driven systems and high-performance microservices. I’ve worked across aviation, fintech, and healthcare domains, developing backend platforms that process millions of events reliably and in near real time. My experience includes building flight operations services at American Airlines , high-throughput data streaming solutions at SS&C Intralinks , and healthcare assessment platforms at Capgemini . Key highlights: • Reduced ETL execution time by 80% using Kafka Streams and AWS MSK • Increased Kafka streaming throughput by 3× through optimized WindowStore-based deduplication • Designed and developed gate optimization services processing real-time airport operational data • Reduced AWS infrastructure costs by consolidating certificate management using AWS PCA • Built and maintained scalable REST APIs and microservices using Java and Spring Boot Tech Stack: Java • Spring Boot • Kafka • AWS • Kubernetes • Docker • PostgreSQL • Node.js • REST APIs • Microservices I’m passionate about distributed systems, backend architecture, and solving performance and scalability challenges. Currently deepening my expertise in system design, cloud-native architectures, and large-scale event processing. Open to connecting with engineers, architects, and teams building scalable backend platforms. 📩 adityalokesh003@gmail.com
