   Current Project:Enabled real-time payment processing for an Instant Payments platform, meeting SLA of 8 seconds per transaction, by ensuring data consistency and optimizing performance across distributed microservices. Developed distributed Java Spring Boot microservices processing 100+ tps and meeting an SLA of <8 seconds/transaction. Built a transaction-level observability dashboard using Java APM agents and New Relic, capturing latency and error metrics. Developed a data synchronization pipeline to replicate static data from the SQL database to the core real-time NoSQL database. Implemented health checks, fallbacks, and retries to improve resilience across microservices. Deployed the microservices to GCP GKE via GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines, enabling consistent and automated releases.Technologies: Java, Springboot, GKE, MongoDB, Oracle SQL, Java APM, New Relic, Microservices, KafkaPrevious Project:Developed and deployed a full-stack internal tool reducing codebase analysis time and costs by up to 20%. Built a dynamic React frontend and Flask backend with secure role-based access control (RBAC) and enhanced user interaction. Integrated Google Vertex AI for file summarization with custom prompts, saving 16+ hours/week on code analysis. Enabled scalable deployment via Docker and GKE; optimized prompt usage by integrating result caching, cutting costs by ~20%.Technologies: React, Python Flask, SQL, GCP (GKE, Vertex AI), Bitbucket, Confluence, Docker.
