- Designed a RAG stock recommendation service in FastAPI with LangChain and Pinecone serving 500k+ monthly queries; async retrieval and Redis (95% hit rate) held sub-100ms p99 on cached queries, surfaced via a React analyst dashboard.
- Refactored the Java API gateway fronting REST and Kafka traffic across 5 microservices, adding Resilience4j circuit breakers, timeouts, and query tuning to drop p99 latency 850ms to 280ms and cut timeout errors 85%.
- Rolled out JWT-based OIDC with Spring Security across 8 Java services securing 1M+ monthly API requests, designing token-validation filters and a staged dual-auth cutover with zero downtime for legacy clients.
- Built an internal developer platform on Backstage with Node.js and Java APIs and GitHub-webhook automation, setting the service-scaffolding and RBAC standard adopted by 30+ engineers across the org.
- Automated multi-cloud deploys for 8 microservices across EKS, AKS, and GKE with Terraform, Helm, and CI and CD pipelines, cutting environment spin-up from days to under an hour.
