Staples
Jul 2024 - May 2025
Translated complex business and functional requirements into scalable backend solutions, collaborating closely with product, frontend, QA, and DevOps teams across the full software development lifecycle. Designed and developed Java Spring Boot–based microservices and RESTful APIs supporting product catalog, inventory, and order fulfillment workflows in a distributed, N-tier architecture. Implemented event-driven and asynchronous communication between microservices using Apache Kafka / RabbitMQ, enabling decoupled processing of order events, inventory updates, and background workflows, and improving system resiliency under peak traffic. Used Kafka producers and consumers (or RabbitMQ publishers/consumers) to handle retryable workflows, reduce synchronous dependencies, and improve overall system throughput and fault tolerance. Designed and optimized relational and NoSQL data models (MySQL, MongoDB), writing complex SQL queries and improving query performance by ~35% through indexing, schema tuning, and caching strategies using Redis. Containerized services using Docker and deployed to Kubernetes, ensuring consistent environments and scalable deployments across staging and production. Built and maintained CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitLab CI, enforcing automated testing, quality gates, and faster release cycles. Developed responsive, high-performance user interfaces using React.js and JavaScript, reducing page load times by 30% through optimized API consumption, lazy loading, and efficient state handling. Owned features end-to-end—from design and development to testing, deployment, monitoring, and production support—delivering high-quality solutions within aggressive timelines.
Software Development Engineer
Amazon Web Services
Dec 2022 - May 2024
Designed, developed, and maintained scalable, cloud-based multi-tier services for AWS RDS Data API using Java and AWS SDK v2, enabling high-throughput data interactions and improving performance by 20%. Enhanced the existing Data API system with version 2 test migrations, converting and validating test cases from API v1 to v2 to ensure backward compatibility and robust feature coverage. Built and integrated RESTful Web Services for client applications, collaborating with frontend and QA teams to define API contracts and streamline cross-platform interactions. Developed comprehensive unit and integration tests using JUnit and Mockito, raising code coverage to 85% and reducing production defects by 30%. Automated CI/CD pipelines in AWS CodePipeline and AWS CodeBuild for onebox deployments, accelerating release cycles by 40% and supporting blue-green deployment strategies for zero-downtime updates. Worked with relational data stores (Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL) to design, query, and optimize data models, enhancing query performance under peak loads. Collaborated across the full Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) — requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, and deployments — ensuring solutions met scalability, reliability, and maintainability standards.
