Available for backend roles

backend that doesn't break.

 

I'm Manoj — two years building Spring Boot microservices for a European bank's credit platform. Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes, and everything that keeps it up at 3am.

01 — experience

Associate Software Engineer

Sep 2024 — present

Tech Mahindra · Hyderabad, India

Client: confidential — FinTech, Europe
  • Designed and shipped RESTful Spring Boot microservices for the client's Credit Score Analysis Tool, with Spring Cloud Eureka for service discovery and OpenFeign for inter-service calls.
  • Cut API latency by ~40% with Redis caching and SQL query optimisation, and kept the service standing under partial failure using Resilience4j circuit breakers, retries and rate limiters.
  • Moved credit score updates onto an event-driven Kafka pipeline carrying 500K+ events/day at sub-100ms end-to-end latency.
  • Secured every endpoint with OAuth 2.0 and Spring Security, including role-based access control across the mesh.
  • Containerised with Docker, orchestrated on Kubernetes for 99.9% uptime, and automated Jenkins CI/CD that took 80% off deployment time.
  • Held test coverage above 80% with JUnit 5 and Mockito, and tracked service health on Splunk dashboards to catch SLA risk early.

PROJECT 01

ipl fantasy agent

AI-powered cricket fantasy picks

A Spring Boot service that feeds live player stats, weather and venue data into Gemini 2.0 Flash and returns a Top 11, captain and vice-captain picks, and a match-winner call.

Split into CricketApiService, WeatherService, GeminiService and an orchestrator — one job each. Runs on Google Cloud Run as a Docker image.

PROJECT 02

distributed lovable clone

AI code generation platform

Spring Boot microservices with Kafka queuing generation tasks asynchronously, so slow AI work never blocks a request thread.

Redis holds sessions and intermediate code artifacts to keep throughput up under load, and Kubernetes with a Horizontal Pod Autoscaler absorbs the traffic swings.
