   Developed a real-time tracking solution for their client Delta Airlines Cargo, using Java 11 (lambda expressions, Stream API, Filters and Functional Interfaces) to enhance back-end efficiency- Utilized Apache Kafka for event-driven message processing from Delta Cargo’s Web Vision, implementing custom filters for data accuracy- Built a scalable application infrastructure using Spring MVC and Spring Boot, facilitating seamless integration between Trackonomy systems and Delta Cargo. This setup improved service delivery and data management- Crafted secure RESTful APIs with OAuth for encrypted data exchanges between Delta Cargo and Trackonomy, ensuring high security and data integrity. This was critical for protecting sensitive shipment information- Managed Oracle database operations, developing complex PL/SQL queries, triggers, and stored procedures. This supported the tracking system’s extensive data requirements, ensuring efficient and accurate data retrieval- Enhanced system performance using Java’s Multithreading, Serialization, and Generics, addressing high data loads effectively. This technical approach led to robust, scalable system functionality- Employed JUnit for rigorous testing of each functionality, ensuring robustness and reliability of the tracking solution by verifying business logic and API data transactions- Actively contributed to the team’s agile development processes, participating in sprints, stand-ups, and retrospectives, adapting quickly to iterative development based on user feedback and evolving technical requirements.
