      At Infosys/Infor, I served as a Senior Java Developer / Cloud Engineer from January 2017 to the present, where I played a leading role in several key projects that focused on cloud migration, performance optimization, and system integration.
      One of my primary responsibilities was leading the migration of Infor's Landmark platform to AWS, using EKS and Docker. This migration resulted in a 30% reduction in operational costs and improved the platform's scalability and performance. I also played a key role in optimizing application performance, reducing data access latency by 25%, and improving the platform's ability to handle up to 50,000 concurrent user requests.
      Additionally, I led the re-architecture of core platform components, upgrading to Java 17 and Spring Boot, and designing and deploying microservices to enhance high-volume financial transactions. I collaborated with cross-functional teams, including UI teams, to integrate Angular 11 front-end applications with the Landmark backend services, ensuring a seamless user experience.
      I managed the integration of HR and Financial Systems, aligning complex business logic with backend services using Spring Boot, and designed secure APIs and microservices that complied with financial regulations like HIPAA and GDPR.
      I also played a crucial role in automating CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes, which reduced deployment times by 50% and improved release frequency. Furthermore, I worked closely with global teams to ensure compliance with industry standards and optimize system performance during peak periods, focusing on areas such as GDPR, PCI DSS, and SOX.
      This experience enabled me to enhance my expertise in cloud infrastructure, microservices, and automation, while ensuring compliance with complex financial and regulatory environments.
