TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES (Client - Mastercard)

Aug 2024 - Present

Designed and developed RESTful APIs for a Decision Management Platform rule engine, enabling dynamic business rule evaluation that drives real-time transaction processing and authorization decisions at enterprise scale. Implemented microservice-based business rule services using Spring Boot, integrating with a third-party rule execution engine (IBM ODM) to process rule codes and identifications that determine transaction outcomes across the payment network. Built a structured exception handling and error response framework across service layers, ensuring consistent API error propagation, improved log traceability, and faster production incident resolution. Integrated downstream services and internal APIs using REST, handling request validation, response mapping, and failure scenarios to ensure reliable end-to-end data flow across microservices. Enforced code quality gates via SonarQube, JUnit, and Mockito unit tests; owned CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, XLR, Chef) with PCF deployments, maintaining high code coverage and reducing production regressions.
