Summary
Vijay Kethamakka is a pragmatic back-end developer with 11 years of software experience and over six years leading cross-functional teams to deliver scalable web, API, and application solutions. Based in San Francisco, he has a strong track record modernizing legacy systems—most notably redesigning an invoicing engine that processes ~20,000 invoices daily and retooling ESB workflows for greater parallelism and graceful shutdowns. Vijay led an 8-person effort to mitigate XSS across 300+ applications, authored company-wide XSS standards, and routinely resolved high-severity production incidents via ServiceNow. He pairs hands-on system design and parallelization techniques (TopShelf, TPL, cancellation tokens) with practical operational features like live test modes and detailed logging to improve visibility and debuggability. Unusually, he has experience across both client- and cash-side business domains at Clean Harbors, giving him rare end-to-end business-context awareness in billing systems.
