Full Stack Engineer | MERN | Agentic AI | Spring Boot | Python
I build production systems, not prototypes.

Full Stack Engineer with 2+ years of experience building distributed backend systems, enterprise IAM platforms, and AI-integrated applications. I have shipped production features across identity governance, social platforms, edtech, and AI booking domains.

Currently deepening my skills in AI agents, LangGraph, and open source contributions.

Identity Governance and Administration Platform

Built an enterprise IAM platform from the ground up, owning the full stack from Java Spring Boot microservices to the React and Next.js dashboard.

Key work delivered:

• Migrated synchronous service-to-service communication from REST to gRPC, reducing inter-service latency by 50%.
• Resolved Spring AOP self-invocation bypass, restoring audit guarantee across affected service methods.
• Refactored audit log schema to be PII-free, restoring compliance alignment without losing forensic traceability.
• Architected the generic rule-based engine for assigning roles, entitlements, and access items to identities through grouped condition evaluation, CRON and event-based scheduling.
• Standardised the frontend theme, color system, and shared component library across the Next.js dashboard, documenting conventions that improved consistency and reduced UI drift across the team.

Stack: Java, Spring Boot, Spring Security, Kafka, gRPC, PostgreSQL, OpenSearch, React, Next.js, TypeScript, Docker, GitHub Actions

Cunocovo, Social Platform for Creative Professionals

Built and maintained production features for a social networking platform serving photographers, videographers, and creative professionals.

Key work delivered:

• Optimised feed loading from 3 seconds to 700ms through selective indexing, query optimisation, DTO cleanup, and a 5-minute in-memory post cache
• Built Reported Posts and Reported Comments systems end to end including database schema, REST APIs with popularity ranking logic, and admin moderation UI
• Fixed duplicate notifications by redesigning concurrent writes with proper transactions.
• Led a zero-downtime migration from AWS to Fly.io, reworking infrastructure, CI/CD, DNS, and service configuration on a live platform.
• Resolved Android, iOS, and Safari rendering issues by tracing client-side performance bottlenecks and restoring consistent cross-platform behaviour.

Stack: Node.js, Express.js, React, Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, PostgreSQL, WebSockets, Docker, Fly.io, GitHub Actions
