Key Strengths

Strong practical experience in Spring Boot, REST API development, and microservices architecture, as demonstrated by the URL Shortener and Digital Wallet projects.
Proven ability in database optimization (MySQL query tuning, Redis caching) and performance enhancement, evidenced by a 58% latency reduction at MobiKwik.
Proficiency in testing methodologies (JUnit, Mockito with high code coverage) and CI/CD pipeline setup (GitHub Actions).
Experience with Docker for containerization and cloud deployment on platforms like Railway and AWS EC2.
Solid understanding and implementation of API security principles (Spring Security, JWT, RBAC) and centralized exception handling.
Demonstrated problem-solving skills, including resolving production incidents and performing root cause analysis.
The candidate's technical skills are highly relevant for a Java Engineer role. However, the stated experience level (1 year) is a significant mismatch for a 'Lead Java Engineer' position, which typically demands extensive architectural, leadership, and mentorship experience not evident at this early career stage.
