About Udeshya Kumar

I am a Java Developer with 4+ years of experience in building enterprise applications, modernizing legacy systems, and delivering end-to-end SDLC implementations across APAC and US clients.I specialize in Java, Spring Boot, JPA, Groovy scripts, and JIRA Automation, with strong exposure to requirement analysis, solution design, client communication, and production deployment. I have independently handled UAT cycles, conducted demos, and ensured smooth Go-Live execution.I have worked on modernizing legacy COBOL systems by rewriting complete logic in Java, improving performance, readability, and long-term maintainability. I also automate manual workflows using Groovy and PowerShell scripts, helping teams reduce effort and speed up releases.What drives me is ownership, continuous learning, and building efficient solutions that make an impact.
