About

I am a passionate Java Backend Developer with extensive experience in designing, developing, and optimizing scalable systems. Having worked in dynamic environments like Paytm and Hexaware, I have gained expertise in building efficient microservices, automating workflows, and improving system performance. My professional journey has equipped me with skills in Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate, and Redis, enabling me to craft high-performance backend solutions. I have successfully implemented caching strategies, pagination, and rate-limiting mechanisms to optimize API performance and reduce latency, achieving improvements such as reducing response times by multiple times. With a design-oriented mindset, I ensure that every solution is scalable, maintainable, and robust. My technical expertise extends to tools like Elasticsearch, Kubernetes, Grafana, Kibana, and Git, which I use to monitor, deploy, and manage applications effectively. Beyond development, I am passionate about Data Structures and Algorithms, earning a 4 ★ rating on CodeChef and solving over 500 problems across competitive programming platforms. Problem-solving and optimization are at the core of my approach to development, driving me to continuously improve and innovate.
