Improved React UI performance by refactoring components, reducing over-fetching in Node.js APIs, and tuning AWS endpoints to streamline claim lifecycle workflows. Increased throughput of claims and eligibility APIs by 30% by splitting Node.js services into microservices, optimizing SQL queries, and adding caching. Reduced authentication defects by integrating OAuth2 and JWT, standardizing token validation, and adding centralized error handling. Cut UI bugs by migrating dashboards to React Hooks and Redux Toolkit with stricter TypeScript typing. Shortened onboarding time by ~30% via documentation in Confluence and ongoing Jira grooming. Reduced deployment errors by enhancing Jenkins/Docker-based CI/CD on AWS with automated smoke tests and environment-specific configs, keeping rollback rate under 1%. Improved logging and CloudWatch-driven reproduction to reduce UAT/production issue resolution from days to hours and maintained stable production behavior through feature branches and code r
Software Developer at Sys Infocom IT Solutions

Built .NET Core REST APIs using Entity Framework and integrated HL7/EDI connections to reduce message processing failures and retries. Reduced SQL query time on high-volume transactional tables by 30–40% via index tuning and stored procedure/join optimization. Converted requirements into clear API contracts and sequence diagrams, documenting flows in Confluence to minimize rework. Improved sprint predictability using Jira grooming and updates. Set up Azure DevOps pipelines to automate build/tests and multi-environment releases, reducing manual deployment time to under 30 minutes.
