Hi, I’m Likitha Baragada, a Full Stack Java Developer with 5+ years of experience delivering enterprise web apps and cloud-native microservices in healthcare and logistics. I enjoy building dynamic UIs with React.js, Redux, and Material-UI, and I design secure, scalable backends using Java, Spring Boot, Spring Data JPA, and REST APIs. I’m well-versed in CI/CD automation with Jenkins, Maven, Docker, and Kubernetes, and I’ve deployed resilient apps on AWS (Lambda, ECS, EC2, S3, RDS, API Gateway, CloudWatch). I work with relational and NoSQL databases like PostgreSQL, Oracle, MongoDB, and Redis, and I rely on automated testing to ensure quality and reliability. I value collaboration with cross-functional teams to deliver impactful features on tight timelines.
