Work History

SE 3

Walmart Inc.
Rogers, AR
06.2024 - Current
  • Architected and operated a high-throughput backend using Java and Spring Boot, reliably handling ~40M requests per day while maintaining low latency under heavy concurrent load.
  • Implemented database-level optimizations in PostgreSQL, including table partitioning, targeted indexing, and connection pool tuning, resulting in a 50% increase in throughput during peak traffic windows.
  • Designed and deployed a custom Kafka partitioning approach to prioritize event processing paths, reducing end-to-end latency by 40% and improving near-real-time data flow across services.
  • Integrated Redis-based distributed caching to offload frequent reads from the database, significantly lowering response times and stabilizing system performance during high-usage periods.
  • Enhanced platform security posture by enforcing OAuth2 authentication, TLS encryption, and HTTPS through Spring Security, contributing to a 30% reduction in security-related findings.

Senior Backend Developer

HTS
San Jose, CA
11.2023 - 06.2024
  • Developed RESTful backend services using Spring Boot for a secure transaction platform, driving a 90% improvement in user experience and interaction reliability.
  • Increased system resilience by implementing Resilience4j circuit breakers and fault-tolerance patterns, isolating downstream failures and preventing cascading outages across microservices.
  • Optimized critical APIs by combining query-level tuning and distributed caching mechanisms, enabling efficient processing of high-volume transactional workloads.
  • Established end-to-end streaming observability by connecting Kafka pipelines with the ELK stack, helping reduce Mean Time to Detection (MTTD) by 30% for production issues.

Software Engineer Intern

Boston, MA
06.2023 - 11.2023
  • Designed and maintained 130+ REST APIs using Java and Spring Boot, integrated with Kafka streams to enable reliable, real-time data exchange between microservices.
  • Improved healthcare pre-authorization approval rates by 20% by optimizing scheduled/batch processing flows and embedding rule-driven decision logic into backend workflows.
  • Reduced database query latency by 30% through creation of optimized PostgreSQL views and effective use of JPA/Hibernate ORM mappings.
  • Built a production-grade monitoring and alerting ecosystem with Prometheus and Grafana, enabling early detection of anomalies and improving overall service stability.

Senior Software Developer

Capgemini Technology Services
Banglore, India
08.2021 - 01.2022
  • Engineered concurrency improvements using multithreading and asynchronous processing models, increasing overall system throughput by 20% under heavy workloads.
  • Deployed containerized backend services using Docker on AWS ECS with auto-scaling configurations, achieving elastic scalability while reducing infrastructure spend by 20%.
