About Parag B

I’m a Software Engineer(Backend) with over six years of experience designing and building backend systems, scalable APIs, and cloud-native applications. My core strengths lie in Java, Spring Boot, and Kafka, along with hands-on experience using DevOps tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins to deliver reliable and high-performing solutions.I’ve worked across both monolithic and microservices architectures, primarily within the financial services domain. In these roles, I’ve helped streamline processes such as real-time decision-making and data handling, which significantly improved system responsiveness and reduced processing times. My experience includes implementing secure authentication workflows, optimizing performance with caching, and developing resilient backend services ready for production.On the infrastructure side, I’ve led the automation of deployments using CI/CD pipelines, containerized applications for consistency, and orchestrated deployments on cloud platforms to support seamless scalability and reliability.Currently, I have completed my Master’s in Computer Science at California State University, Chico. As part of my academic and personal growth, I’m also expanding into deepening my understanding of distributed systems, cloud computing, and site reliability engineering.I’m passionate about solving complex engineering problems and building systems that are both scalable and dependable. I’m now looking for full-time opportunities starting May 2025 in backend development, platform engineering, or SRE roles where I can contribute and continue learning.
