I'm a Senior Back-End Java Developer with over 7 years of experience building and modernizing enterprise-grade systems — from distributed microservices and API gateways to containerized deployments on Kubernetes and AWS. My work tends to sit at the intersection of performance, security, and scale: the kind of problems where architectural decisions have real downstream consequences.
My core stack is Java (Spring Boot, Hibernate, JPA) paired with Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS (EKS, Lambda, S3). I hold an Oracle Certified Associate credential for Java SE 8 alongside AWS-focused training.
What I'm genuinely excited about right now is the convergence of cloud-native architecture and modern AI/automation tooling. I'm actively upskilling in AI integration, prompt engineering, and LLM-powered workflow automation — both as a practitioner and as someone who sees these capabilities as the next meaningful layer on top of solid distributed systems fundamentals. I believe the developers who will make the biggest impact in the next few years are those who understand how to embed intelligent automation thoughtfully into backend systems — not just adopt it superficially.
I thrive in environments that take engineering craft seriously, move with purpose, and aren't afraid to challenge legacy assumptions when better patterns exist. I'm as comfortable mentoring teammates as I am going deep on a hard performance problem solo.
