Collaborated in an Agile (Scrum) team across the full software development lifecycle. Designed and implemented scalable microservices with Spring Boot and Kafka-based asynchronous messaging. Built responsive React front-end components using hooks, context API, routing, and Redux; developed REST APIs with Node.js/Express. Leveraged Java 11+ features (lambdas, streams) to optimize back-end processing. Implemented modular back-end services using Spring IOC, Data, Batch, and Transaction Management; secured APIs with Spring Security and OAuth2. Integrated MongoDB for NoSQL storage and optimized data models for performance. Containerized applications with Docker and deployed to Kubernetes clusters via YAML; managed CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and GitHub Actions, including automated tests (JUnit 5). Deployed full-stack apps on Azure App Services with Azure SQL; built cloud-native apps on AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, SQS, SNS, SES, Elastic Beanstalk). Implemented a search framework using Spring Boot, K

Participated in all SDLC phases with emphasis on Test Driven Development and unit testing. Designed and developed backend modules using Spring MVC, IOC, AOP, and OO principles. Implemented cross-cutting concerns with Spring AOP; built RESTful microservices via Spring Boot with asynchronous messaging via Apache Kafka. Integrated Angular 11 front-end with Spring Boot APIs and PostgreSQL. Built Angular components with RxJS, state management, routing, and validations; implemented OAuth 2 authentication/authorization. Modeled PostgreSQL schemas and MongoDB collections; deployed and managed apps using Docker, Azure, & AWS (EC2, Lambda). Automated builds with Maven/Jenkins and embedded Tomcat servers. Wrote unit and end-to-end tests with Jasmine, Karma. Managed code in Git/Jira within Agile sprints.

Collaborated with stakeholders to translate requirements into RESTful APIs and microservices using Spring Boot and Spring Data. Built dynamic front-end components with React, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, and JavaScript. Integrated front-end with back-end services using Axios and React hooks. Implemented AWS Lambda functions and AWS SDK for media storage and infra automation. Secured APIs with Spring Security and OAuth2. Developed data access with Spring Data JPA using Oracle. Used Java core features (Collections, Exceptions) to strengthen back-end logic. Managed builds with Maven on embedded Tomcat; wrote JUnit tests and integrated into CI/CD with Jenkins. Used STS for development and debugging, and tracked work in Jira.
