Summary

With over ten years of extensive experience in Information Technology, I specialize in the design, development, and testing of middleware applications, leveraging advanced tools such as Mule ESB, CloudHub, Anypoint Studio, and Anypoint Platform. My expertise spans integration patterns, Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), XML Schemas, and XSLT, allowing me to deliver seamless solutions aligned with organizational objectives. I excel in crafting RESTful and SOAP web services within Mule ESB, following Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) principles, and configuring APIs with precision using MuleSoft API Manager. My hands-on experience extends to integrating diverse applications with connectors like Salesforce, File, Database, and Active MQ, while implementing data transformations to enhance operational efficiency. Additionally, I have exposure to Microsoft BizTalk Server, supporting integration efforts and gaining familiarity with enterprise messaging and workflow orchestration. I am adept at developing complex Mule Flows, implementing error handling strategies, and utilizing various integration patterns to ensure strong system performance. Proficient in Mule Expression Language (MEL) and DataWeave, I possess a keen eye for detail in accessing and evaluating data within Mule messages. Beyond middleware expertise, I bring proficiency in Azure DevOps, where I’ve successfully created APIs using Azure Logic Apps and Function Apps, showcasing my adaptability to diverse technology environments. Skilled in Agile and Waterfall methodologies, I have a proven track record of driving project success through effective collaboration, communication, and a proactive approach to learning and implementing emerging technologies. If you’re seeking an experienced IT professional with a passion for innovation and a commitment to excellence, let’s connect and explore opportunities for collaboration.
