I'm a Staff Software Engineer with over 9 years of experience in backend development, specializing in building scalable, high-performance systems. My core expertise lies in Java and Spring Boot, with a strong focus on API development, event-driven architecture, and distributed systems. I’ve worked extensively with Kafka to build reliable messaging systems, and I enjoy solving complex technical challenges that drive real business value. Passionate about clean code, system design, and performance optimization, I thrive in collaborative environments where I can mentor engineers, drive architectural decisions, and contribute to building robust backend infrastructures.
