Lead the design of secure, event-driven, cloud-native microservices using Java (17+) and Spring Boot.
Make foundational decisions around domain boundaries, data modeling, orchestration vs choreography, and infrastructure.
Mentor other engineers and help establish engineering best practices, code quality, and system observability.

Strong in system design, API design, and distributed systems fundamentals.

Hands-on with relational (PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (DynamoDB/Redis) databases.
Proven ability to write secure, production-grade code in high-trust domains.
Exposure to AWS, infrastructure as code (Terraform), and containerized deployments (Fargate/ECS).
