🎯 Goal-oriented Senior Software Engineer backed by 5+ years of experience building scalable & resilient enterprise microservices across Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, and GCP. 🧬 Leveraging AI tools to accelerate design, automation, and incident resolution. 💡 Proficient in designing, deploying, and orchestrating distributed & containerised applications at scale — with a strong focus on ⚡ performance optimisation, 📈 high availability, and 🧩 solution design that drives user experiences and workflows in real time. 🛠️ At the Engineering Core What drives my work is simple — where the right architecture decision separates a system that buckles under load from one that scales effortlessly — where slowing down for a well-designed solution saves hours of debugging introduced by rushed decisions — and where mentoring the right engineer at the right moment multiplies impact beyond what any single person can build alone. 🌱 Beyond the Build Actively engaged in the tech conference ecosystem — attending, absorbing, and occasionally 🎤 taking the stage. Experienced mentor at CodeFirstGirls, Toppr, and Chegg, occasional competitive programmer, and always exploring AI-driven side projects at the edge of what's possible. ✨
