Summary
Gaurav Raj is a pragmatic software engineer with six years of experience building full-stack, scalable systems across finance, healthcare, and retail. He has moved from hands-on Java/J2EE and XML work to architecting RESTful microservices, ESBs, and cloud deployments using Spring Boot, AWS, Kubernetes and modern front-end frameworks. At companies including Humana, Bed Bath & Beyond, and now SoFi, he’s delivered projects spanning enterprise integration, observability (Splunk dashboards) and DevOps automation. Comfortable across legacy and modern stacks, he pairs deep backend engineering with front-end skills (React/Angular) and infrastructure tooling. He holds an MS in Computational Science and a dual technical undergraduate background, a combination that helps him translate complex domain requirements into reliable, production-grade solutions. Notably, he’s experienced in migrating monolithic JSP apps to MVC frameworks and designing microservice APIs that improved system visibility and error monitoring.
