Senior Software Engineer building event-driven backends on Java, Spring Boot and GCP.

I'm an engineer who cares as much about how I build as what I ship. By profession I build event-driven backends on Java, Spring Boot and GCP. The rest of my time keeps turning into the same question, answered differently. A rough stretch of AI-assisted coding became a spec-driven workflow, now running across my team. That workflow turned into two side builds of my own: a file upload API and a full site rebuild.

EDUCATION

Thiagarajar College of Engineering

EDUCATION
Computer Science · CGPA 9.42 / 10

Studies and tennis took most of my time in college, captained the team in my final year and we took the Zonals that same year. On the side I was exploring Android development, mostly UI work in Jetpack Compose, which is where cryptouijc came from.

WORK

Software Analyst

Jun 2023 — Jul 2025
Bounteous x Accolite
  • Designed and built a credit management system from scratch on Spring Boot and Cloud SQL, migrating 3M+ historical transactions live with zero downtime.
  • Eliminated a concurrency race that handed out duplicate customer numbers at registration, wrapping ID generation in a Firestore transaction.
  • Automated an inventory data ingestion pipeline on Apache NiFi, eliminating 100+ hours of manual effort a month.
  • Built Cloud Monitoring dashboards and multi-threshold alerting across distributed Cloud Run services, improving observability and cutting MTTR.
  • Raised JUnit test coverage from 75% to 88% by introducing parameterized tests and mocking strategies.

Senior Software Engineer

Aug 2025 — Present
Bounteous x Accolite
  • Architected a GCP Pub/Sub pipeline ingesting 20+ webhook event types, handling 300,000+ requests a day at 99.99% delivery reliability.
  • Chose Pub/Sub over synchronous HTTP fanout to decouple ingestion from processing, isolating faults per event type with dead-letter queues and exponential backoff retries.
  • Cut order history API responses from 6-8s to under 1s by replacing direct BigQuery queries with a pre-aggregated SQL Server store, fed by a Dataflow/Beam streaming pipeline.
  • Owned end-to-end migration of 400,000+ customer records to a new platform, with zero downtime and no data loss.
  • Introduced and drove team-wide adoption of a Spec Driven Development workflow, cutting development time 30-50% against estimates.
  • Diagnosed and resolved a production data integrity incident, reconciling 35,000 incorrect debits and restoring 20,000 missing cancellation credits with zero customer escalations.
