ABOUT AMJAD KHADER

I build backend systems that scale and engineering teams that deliver.Technically, I specialize in untangling complex monoliths and turning them into resilient, distributed systems. I don’t just write code; I focus on the “invisible” work that keeps production running: observability, architectural health, and developer productivity.But code is only half the job. The other half is people.As a Senior Engineer, I measure my success not just by the features I ship, but by the growth of the engineers around me. I am obsessed with mentorship, code quality, and turning “coders” into product-minded problem solvers.What I bring to the table: Backend at Scale: Designing high-throughput services using Java, Go, and Spring Boot. Technical Leadership: Mentoring teams to move faster with autonomy and confidence. System Health: Building systems that don’t wake you up at 3 AM (Datadog, SLOs, Resiliency).My Tech Stack:• Languages: Java, Kotlin, Go, Node.js• Architecture: Microservices, Event-Driven (Kafka/SQS)• Infrastructure: Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, Terraform• Datastores: PostgreSQL, Redis, NoSQLCurrently building scalable architecture @ SAP | LeanIX.Writing about #BackendEngineering,#Leadership, and the reality of life in production.
