Summary

Senior Java Full-Stack Developer with 5 years building cloud-native Spring Boot micro-services and event-driven platforms across aviation, fintech, and healthcare domains. Deep experience automating delivery on AWS with DockerJenkins CI/CD, scaling Apache Kafka streams into the millions of events per second, and tuning relational data stores (PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL) via Hibernate/JPA. Strengths include hardening services with OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, Spring Vault, driving observability through ELK and CloudWatch, and crafting React (TypeScript)/ Angular dashboards and Thymeleaf portals that turn data into action. Led monolith-to-micro-service migrations that cut release cycles 40% while meeting strict HIPAA, PCI, and airline-operations SLAs in Agile/Scrum environments.
