I'm a Software Engineer with almost 4 years of experience in analysis, development, testing, and implementing Web-based, Client/Server applications across the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). I design and develop scalable web applications using Java EE technologies (JMS, JDBC, JSP, Servlets, EJB) and the Spring ecosystem to improve modularity and developer productivity. I specialize in crafting scalable, high-performance web applications with Java, Spring Boot, and microservices to ensure system resilience and independent deployability. I also focus on meticulous database design and optimization, data integrity, and secure, robust solutions across the stack, from back-end services to front-end integration.
