Hi, I’m YUVADEEP REDDY KOLAKARI. I’m a software engineer with 4+ years of experience building enterprise applications across BFSI, healthcare, and e-commerce. I enjoy turning complex requirements into reliable, scalable software using Java (Spring Boot, Hibernate), Python (Django/Flask), and modern JavaScript (Node.js, React, TypeScript). I’m comfortable owning end-to-end delivery—from designing microservices and REST/GraphQL APIs to setting up CI/CD pipelines in AWS/Azure with Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes. I value collaboration, security, and compliance (PCI DSS, HIPAA, FHIR), and I’m always eager to learn new technologies to solve business problems.

Work Experience

Software Engineer at Northern Trust
June 1, 2024 - Present
Designed Spring Boot microservices integrated with Oracle and PostgreSQL for wealth management, automating trade settlements and reconciliations, reducing manual processing errors, and improving efficiency across key financial operations. Built and maintained CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitHub Actions, adding automated regression tests, reducing deployment failures by 40%, and accelerating release cycles from bi-weekly schedules to weekly reliable deployments. Implemented JWT/OAuth 2.0 authentication and AWS IAM role-based access controls, securing financial transaction portals, achieving full PCI DSS compliance, and eliminating recurring audit exceptions across critical regulatory reporting cycles. Modernized legacy wealth APIs by migrating from SOAP to REST and GraphQL, enabling selective field querying, reducing API payload sizes by 35%, and significantly improving data refresh times for analysts. Led migration of containerized workloads to Kubernetes (EKS), enabling on-demand
Software Engineer at Hexaware Technologies
November 1, 2022 - October 16, 2025
Designed and deployed Java Spring MVC claims adjudication modules with SQL Server, processing 15K+ daily transactions, automating calculations and settlements, reducing manual rework, and ensuring accurate results across BFSI applications for multiple enterprise clients. Optimized SQL Server/MySQL reporting queries by restructuring stored procedures and indexes, cutting execution time from 12 to 5 minutes, accelerating compliance report delivery, and improving regulator-driven audit readiness by 60%. Implemented Terraform Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for provisioning AWS EC2 and RDS, reducing provisioning time from 2 hours to 20 minutes, ensuring environment consistency, and improving deployment reliability across staging and production workloads. Built Flask APIs integrated with MongoDB and DynamoDB to manage BFSI audit logs, capturing 100% of high-risk user actions, improving compliance monitoring, and enabling regulator audits without penalties or adverse findings. Conducted JMeter
Junior Software Engineer at Cybage Software
February 1, 2021 - October 16, 2025
Assisted in developing Node.js and React.js modules for an e-commerce client, enhancing checkout workflows, improving user experience, and increasing order completion rates. Wrote SQL queries and created stored procedures in Oracle and SQLite for inventory validation and catalog synchronization, ensuring consistent data across platforms and reducing stock discrepancies during peak sales. Enhanced front-end performance by refactoring Bootstrap and jQuery-based components, reducing DOM manipulation overhead. Page load speeds improved by 22%, directly impacting customer session retention metrics. Contributed to pipeline automation by configuring Azure DevOps CI/CD builds, reducing manual intervention in deployments by 30% and ensuring reliable nightly builds. Participated in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, daily standups, and retrospectives, helping resolve an average of 25+ bugs per sprint and improving overall sprint velocity by 15%.
