He specializes in Java (8–21), Spring Boot, distributed systems and event-driven architectures, and has a proven track record migrating monoliths to resilient microservices while reducing downtime and improving performance. Comfortable across the full backend stack, he architects APIs, works with Kafka, gRPC, PostgreSQL and Redis, and leverages cloud-native tooling like AWS, Kubernetes, Docker and ArgoCD for reliable deployments.
