I am a highly accomplished Principal Engineer / System Architect with 19+ years of experience in architecting, developing, designing, and deploying robust, scalable, and secure enterprise applications using Core Java, J2EE, Spring Boot, AWS Cloud, and GenAI technologies. I have a strong track record of driving technical strategy, leading complex modernization and migration initiatives, mentoring engineering teams, and implementing secure software development practices aligned with OWASP, microservices architecture, and CI/CD pipelines. My experience spans multiple domains including Telecom, Airlines, and Financial Services.

In my current role as Principal Engineer – System Architecture at Verizon (Alpharetta, GA), I am leading architecture and migration initiatives for large-scale systems, including modernization from monolithic stacks to a North Star Architecture to enable reuse of core services across multiple value brands. Previously at Verizon, I also served as a Senior Engineer Consultant and played a key role in security advocacy and compliance, including Fortify/Black Duck scanning automation through Jenkins pipelines, remediation of vulnerabilities, and strengthening application security posture across portfolios.
