About

I’m a software engineer with a strong focus on backend development, particularly in designing and building web applications using Java, databases, and the Spring Framework. Over the years, I’ve developed robust server-side solutions, though I also have some exposure to frontend technologies, having worked with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS using frameworks like Ext JS, AngularJS, and React. In addition to development, I’ve also worked in support engineering roles where I gained hands-on experience in application profiling, debugging, and performance optimization using tools such as Dynatrace. Security is another area I’m well-versed in. I have a solid understanding of OWASP security principles, including protection against CSRF and XSS vulnerabilities. I’m familiar with code scanning and remediation tools like Checkmarx and Black Duck, ensuring secure and compliant codebases. Currently, I’m contributing to a platform engineering project centered around Infrastructure as Data. This work involves technologies like Kubernetes, Crossplane, Docker, and Go. I develop Crossplane compositions and manage infrastructure setups using tools like vCluster, OpenSearch, and SAP BTP. Alongside my professional work, I’m pursuing a Master’s in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning through a joint program between Liverpool John Moores University and IIIT Bangalore, to further expand my capabilities in emerging technologies.
