Work History
Java Backend Developer
SkillNet Solutions India Pvt. Ltd.
09.2025 - 04.2026
- Worked on a Point of Sale (POS) backend platform used by retail merchants to process customer purchases and payment transactions.
- The application was developed using a microservices architecture, where different business capabilities were separated into independent services responsible for payment processing, transaction management, receipt generation, and notifications.
- My work primarily focused on backend development in the Data Access Layer (DAL), implementing business logic, developing and enhancing REST APIs, integrating database operations through JPA/Hibernate, debugging end-to-end request processing, and supporting production issues.
- The application exposed REST APIs consumed by POS terminals and internal systems.
- Data was persisted in MySQL managed under AWS RDS infrastructure, secured using JWT authentication, and asynchronous processing was handled using RabbitMQ.
- Database schema changes were managed using Liquibase, while distributed application performance and lookup caching were accelerated using Redis and Ehcache clusters.
- Jenkins and GitLab supported the CI/CD workflow, with monitoring pipelines configured through AWS CloudWatch.
- Developed and maintained RESTful APIs using Spring Boot.
- Worked primarily in the Data Access Layer (DAL) to implement and troubleshoot database interactions.
- Created and maintained JPA Entity and Repository classes.
- Enhanced existing REST endpoints and implemented new backend functionality, including the Smart Reduction API.
- Wrote SQL queries and validated data stored in MySQL tables managed under AWS RDS environments.
- Implemented multi-level application caching configurations using Redis and Ehcache to minimize database trip latency.
- Participated in debugging request flow across multiple microservices.
- Consumed and produced RabbitMQ messages and investigated queue-related issues.
- Implemented and maintained JWT-based authentication.
- Used Liquibase to manage database schema updates.
- Wrote and executed unit and integration test cases using JUnit and Mockito test structures.
- Fixed defects reported during QA, UAT, and production support loops.
- Used GitLab for clone, fetch, pull, commit, push, merge requests, and resolving merge conflicts.
- Monitored Jenkins pipeline execution and build status.
- Used Docker locally to run supporting services during development.
- Worked with server computational environments including AWS EC2, automated triggers via AWS Lambda, assets on AWS S3, and health monitoring logs inside AWS CloudWatch.
- Participated in Daily Scrum, Sprint Planning, Sprint Reviews, Retrospectives, and code review feedback.
- Collaborated with team members to resolve production issues and deliver sprint commitments.
- Trust Payments provides payment technology solutions that enable merchants to securely process digital and in-store transactions. The platform supports multiple payment methods, transaction processing, merchant services, and secure payment infrastructure.
Java Developer (Backend)
Tech Mahindra
11.2018 - 09.2024
- A massive, multi-year core enterprise solution designed to orchestrate transnational container shipments across Sea, Air, and Land routes.
- The application governs dynamic business calculation matrices for multiple tiers of vendors, managing complex routing hierarchies, container capacity optimization, and real-time point-to-point port tracking.
- The key technical driver of this architecture is a high-performance automated Tariff Rules Engine that determines complex freight fees, customs surcharge equations, container sizing overheads, and distance cost matrices instantly, ensuring that global shipping agents receive immediate, valid dispatch quotes without systemic lag.
- Local application memory spaces were integrated via Ehcache implementations to safely manage rapid lookup caching for static tariff constants.
- Transitioned smoothly from application infrastructure support to backend product development based on deep mastery of core enterprise logic architectures.
- Leveraged Java 8 functional abstractions, Stream APIs, and highly concurrent collections to process multi-layered vendor records, reducing execution latency inside tracking algorithms.
- Constructed dynamic database schemas, custom tracking functions, indexing paradigms, and view layer components in MySQL to optimize operations over millions of historic shipping tables.
- Formulated flexible Spring MVC structures to orchestrate internal API routing rules, delivering decoupling from front-end operational presentation layers.
- Utilized Ehcache local memory structures to preserve static pricing models and geography mapping definitions, saving recurring query processing cycles.
- Designed and exposed robust RESTful Web Services used by international port handlers to push spatial updates and container offloading statuses sequentially.
- Implemented comprehensive unit and behavioral validation checks through JUnit combined with Mockito mock dependency management tools to decouple structural calculations from direct storage parameters.
- Maintained and steadily refactored parts of legacy operational systems backed by J2EE technologies (Servlets, JDBC, JSP), migrating components cleanly into modern Spring configurations.
- National Shipping Services Co. Ltd. (NSS) is a trusted leader in shipping and logistics solutions operating globally since 1986. A subsidiary of the Sharaf Group, it handles various ship types including Container, General Cargo, and RORO ships, alongside sea and air freight forwarding.
