Tech Lead / Development Lead / Java Developer
Allstate Solutions Private Ltd
02.2017 - 04.2025
- Digital Worker (Design Lead, Team of 5, 1 year | Java, Spring Boot, AI/LLM): Designed and led development of an AI-powered digital worker that autonomously processes insurance discount decisions — including QHC and Roof Replacement discounts — targeting 100 decisions per day based on user data and policy information.
- Defined the end-to-end AI decision pipeline, integrating LLM reasoning with structured insurance policy rules to produce consistent, auditable discount outcomes.
- Led a team of 5 engineers from solution design through architect approval, development, and production deployment.
- AION Studio (Design Lead, Team of 5, 1 year | Java, Spring Boot, React, LLM APIs): Built an internal AI playground serving 500+ users, enabling teams to explore, prototype, and validate ideas using large language models through a self-service UI.
- Designed the full-stack architecture connecting a React frontend to Spring Boot backend services and underlying LLM APIs, supporting multi-model experimentation.
- Led a team of 5 from concept through delivery, driving adoption across internal teams as the primary AI experimentation platform.
- AION (Design Lead, Team of 5, 1 year | Java, Spring Boot, REST Services): Architected and led development of a unified LLM wrapper API providing standardized access to 3 model families — GPT-4 series, GPT-5 series, and Claude Sonnet (claude-sonnet-4-6) — through a single internal API surface.
- Eliminated direct per-model integration overhead for consuming teams by abstracting provider-specific authentication, request formatting, and response handling into one shared service.
- Designed the solution POC, obtained architect approval, and led a team of 5 through full delivery and production deployment.
- Request Generator (Development Lead, Team of 5, 2 years | Java, Spring, React): Led a team of 5 to design and ship a service payload generation tool enabling onboarded teams to construct, validate, and test service payloads against internal services — reducing manual payload creation effort across all onboarded applications.
- Drove full delivery lifecycle: requirements gathering, solution design, architect approval, development, code review, and production deployment.
- Reviewed all team-submitted code changes and owned issue resolution and future design planning.
- Prod Replay Env Build (Team Lead, Team of 4, 2 years | Java, Spring, JMS, IBM MQ, IBM WAS): Led a team of 4 to design and build a production-replica server environment enabling safe testing of production-equivalent configurations without live business traffic or third-party communication.
- Coordinated across multiple internal teams to finalize server configurations and deliver environment-specific solution applications.
- Designed solution POC, obtained architect approval, and owned server configuration review, validation, and ongoing issue resolution.
- Spring LDAP Security (Java Developer, Team of 2, 1 year | Spring Security, Spring Boot, Core Java): Built a reusable, distributable security JAR consumed by multiple internal applications to enforce LDAP-based authentication and authorization across web services and UI layers.
- Designed the filter interception layer that validated all incoming web service and browser requests, granting or denying resource access based on authentication result.
- Managed full release lifecycle including versioning, onboarding support for consuming applications, and future design finalization.
- Product-channel-security (Java Developer, Solo, 4 months | Spring Framework, Core Java): Built a shared API JAR enabling applications across all environments to make HTTPS calls to secured internal services, dynamically configuring SSL context and trust store paths from environment-specific server properties.
- Managed full release lifecycle and provided onboarding support for all dependent applications.
- MDB Remediation (Java Developer, Team of 2, 4 months | Spring JMS, Core Java, REST Services): Eliminated legacy EJB dependency from the existing Message-Driven Bean architecture by replacing it with a JNDI-based queue configuration and a thread-pool-backed REST service for message processing.
- Designed solution POC, obtained architect approval, deployed to servers, and owned ongoing monitoring and issue resolution.
- Transaction Unlock (Java Developer, Team of 4, 6 months | Core Java, JEE): Developed a multi-session unlock feature allowing users to open additional read-only sessions while restricting data modification to the primary valid session, preventing data integrity violations across concurrent sessions.
- Owned production monitoring, defect resolution, and cross-user and cross-application testing.
