Summary
With 1.4 years of work experience in software development—including backend expertise with Java, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL, I have developed advanced proficiency in building, optimizing, and scaling robust systems. My contributions span database performance tuning, effective indexing, resolving data consistency issues, and implementing fallback mechanisms for critical features. I am experienced with microservices architecture, ORM frameworks like Hibernate and Prisma, and have worked full stack on projects such as an Automatic Timetable Generator and an Automatic Vehicle Tracking System, demonstrating strong algorithmic problem-solving and teamwork skills. Passionate about delivering maintainable, efficient solutions, I am particularly equipped for roles requiring strong engineering skills, experience with data processing libraries, distributed systems, and quality coding mentorship.
