The Developer Behind the Code

I'm a Java Backend Developer with hands-on internship experience in building scalable, secure backend applications using Java and Spring Boot. I specialize in RESTful API development, Spring Security with JWT authentication, and cloud deployment on AWS EC2 — with a strong focus on performance and reliability.

My foundation in Data Structures & Algorithms (200+ problems solved), OOP, and SOLID principles drives my approach to writing clean, maintainable code. I've contributed to database optimization achieving 35% performance improvements, led 20+ code reviews, and built systems capable of handling 1000+ concurrent requests. I graduated with a CGPA of 8.6 and earned Academic Excellence recognition in my BCA program.
