I'm a results-driven software developer with over 15 years of experience designing and building scalable, high-performance web applications and microservices. I've worked across product centric and enterprise environments, with hands-on experience at companies leveraging Microsoft technologies, Azure, and AWS to drive cloud-native solutions. I specialize in the Microsoft .NET ecosystem-including C#.NET, ASP.NET MVC, .NET Core (up to 7.0), and ADO.NET-and bring deep expertise in developing RESTful APIs, microservices, and database-backed systems using SQL Server, MySQL, and MongoDB. In recent years, I've expanded into cloud platforms and DevOps practices, building and deploying resilient solutions using Azure Service Bus (queues/topics), AWS Lambda, S3, and SQS, alongside containerized applications in Docker and Kubernetes. I'm highly skilled in implementing unit and integration testing using xUnit, NUnit, and MSTest, with CI/CD pipelines supporting automated deployment and delivery. I also have strong experience with TFS (Team Foundation Server) for version control, build automation, and release management. I have hands-on experience with Confluence for documentation and collaboration, and I'm proficient with Microsoft Office products, including Teams, Microsoft Project, Word, Visio, Excel, and PowerPoint, supporting both technical and business communication effectively. Recently, I've worked on AI-driven projects in the automotive space, including CarSearch and CarChat, an intelligent chatbot for vehicle inquiries. These solutions leveraged AWS services and integrated with Amazon SageMaker and OpenSearch for advanced search capabilities, natural language processing, and real-time conversational AI, enhancing the user experience and engagement across digital platforms. One of my proudest achievements was leading the migration of a legacy monolith system to a cloud-based microservices architecture, cutting load times by 40%, and improving uptime across global regions. Above all, I'm passionate about building clean, maintainable, and efficient code that delivers real-world business impact.
