04 / BEYOND THE CODE

Curiosity is part
of the process.

I’m a software engineer with 6+ years of experience building enterprise applications across healthcare and insurance. My work combines Java, Spring Boot, microservices, and distributed systems with a foundation in data structures, algorithms, and system design.

At Oracle, I develop Revenue Cycle applications, cloud integrations, and workflow automation. My experience includes performance optimization, architecture reviews, automated testing, and production support, alongside cloud-native development with OCI and AWS.

More about my approach

Before Oracle, I worked at Cerner Corporation on healthcare applications and React-based modernization, and at Tata Consultancy Services on pension and annuity services. I also work with Generative AI and LLM-powered solutions, including Spring AI, AI agents, and prompt engineering.
