About

As a passionate and results-driven Software Engineer with over four years of professional experience, I specialize in building scalable backend systems and full-stack solutions in the healthcare domain. Currently working as an SDE3 at Optum (UHG), I’ve contributed to developing high-impact data platforms and customer-facing applications using technologies such as Java, Spring Boot, Apache Kafka, Spark Streaming, Elastic Search, ReactJS, and AWS. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a consistent ability to design and implement performant microservice-based architectures, resolve critical incidents swiftly, and drive measurable improvements in system reliability and team productivity. My projects include building distributed data systems handling over 40 million records and designing REST APIs that significantly reduced data discrepancies and improved platform responsiveness. I bring a strong foundation in computer science (B.Tech. from Punjab Engineering College) and an eagerness to continually expand my skill set. Whether adopting emerging technologies or refining legacy systems, I approach each challenge with a mindset of continuous learning and innovation. Feel free to connect!
