About Nethaji Reddy Emani

I’m a Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience building and supporting scalable backend and cloud-native systems using Java, Spring Boot, AWS, and microservices architecture. I currently work at Capital One, contributing to high-volume systems used by hundreds of thousands of users across digital banking platforms.My core strength is backend engineering and system design — including REST API design, microservices development, and performance optimization. I’ve worked end-to-end across the software lifecycle, from system design and implementation to deployment, monitoring, and production support, with a strong ownership mindset. What I BringBackend & Distributed Systems: Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, MicroservicesCloud & DevOps: AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS), Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CDDatabases & Performance: PostgreSQL, MySQL, DynamoDB, Redis, query optimizationReliability & Scale: Monitoring, logging, latency reduction, fault toleranceI enjoy solving real-world engineering problems, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and building reliable systems that scale in production. I’m particularly interested in backend, platform, and cloud-focused roles where system design and performance matter.
