👋 I’m Nawaz Sharif, a Senior Software Engineer at Chegg with 7+ years of experience building scalable, privacy-first platforms, backend systems, and high-impact web applications. I've worked across multiple industries including ed-tech, fintech, healthcare, and logistics. I love solving complex problems with clean, simple, and production-ready code. My expertise lies in Java, Spring Boot, AWS, Redis, Kafka, and microservices. 💡 What sets me apart is my ability to design cost-saving, scalable architectures, simplify complex systems, and build frameworks and reusable templates that reduce onboarding time and tech debt. I’m known for my clean code mindset, deep architectural thinking, and making even the most complicated designs easy to implement and maintain. 🧠 My journey includes real-world experience with everything from building greenfield systems and replacing orchestration engines like Zeebe, to mentoring engineers and contributing to fraud prevention, privacy platforms, and machine learning-driven decisions at scale. Whether it’s low-level design, performance optimization, or mentoring future senior engineers — I bring full-stack experience with depth, clarity, and passion.
