I’m Ambika, a Software Engineer & Team Lead who builds exactly that—invisible but indispensable systems that keep applications running smoothly and efficiently, with a focus on AI-driven automation and scalable architecture. ► I design and develop: • Scalable backend systems using Java, Spring Boot, and Python • Microservices & REST APIs that serve thousands of requests • AI/ML automation tools, including a recent Generative AI bot to streamline customer support processes • MySQL-powered data solutions and Linux-hosted applications ► I lead and deliver: I currently lead a team of 4 developers at Ikontel Solutions, guiding planning, code quality, and timely delivery while remaining hands-on with architecture and complex coding tasks. Under this leadership, we’ve delivered systems like: • Journey Builder: A communication automation tool for banking clients that personalizes borrower interactions via SMS, Voice, and Email. • A Python-based transaction analytics module built in just one month that processes high-volume data and reduces manual effort by 40%. • A compliant skip-tracing system that enables ethical digital footprint tracing for legal and financial sectors. I’m passionate about leveraging cutting-edge technology—especially Generative AI and cloud-native solutions—to solve real-world business problems, drive efficiency, and future-proof systems.
