👨‍💻 My journey into the intricate world of backend engineering began at a young age when I discovered the power of logic and problem-solving through mathematical puzzles. This early passion blossomed into a career focused on mastering the art of building robust, scalable systems.I derive immense satisfaction from transforming complex ideas into seamless digital solutions, a path that naturally led me to specialize in backend technologies. My work revolves around the seamless integration of high-performance and scalable architectures, ensuring that every application I craft is reliable, efficient, and ready to handle enterprise-level challenges.A deep-seated curiosity for evolving technologies like microservices, cloud computing, and containerization drives me to continually refine my expertise and remain at the forefront of backend development. I've taken part in pioneering projects that leverage Java and C# to construct adaptable systems, harmonizing with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP.At Walmart and Photon, my focus on database optimization and middleware integration has led to breakthroughs in data throughput and system interoperability, providing the foundation for innovative analytics platforms. My experience extends to collaborating with cross-functional teams to architect ecommerce and fintech solutions, enriching my technical repertoire and business acumen.During my tenure at Chetu, I delved deep into optimizing distributed systems and enhancing server-side performance, leading to a notable reduction in response times and increased system reliability. I spearheaded the backend development of several mission-critical APIs, utilizing frameworks such as Spring Boot and ASP.NET Core to deliver scalable solutions that support millions of users globally.Skills: Leadership, System Optimization, Technical Mentorship, Backend Development, API Design, Cloud Architecture, Agile Methodologies, MicroservicesTechnological Proficiencies: - Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate, C#, .NET Core, ASP.NET, Python, Django, FastAPI, GoLang, Rust, Maven, Gradle, RESTful API, GraphQL- SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, SQL Server, NoSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Redis, Snowflake- Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD, Jenkins, Github Actions, New Relic, Splunk, ELK, Grafana, Prometheus, Kafka, RabbitMQ- AWS, GCP, AzureAWS: Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS, DynamoDB, API Gateway, CloudWatch, SNS/SQS, IAM, API Gateway, Cognito, EKS, ECS- Version Control Tools: Git, GitHub, GitLabFeel free to reach out: steven.glover.bud@gmail.com
