I’m a senior Java backend developer with 16 years of experience, specializing in Java, Spring Boot, and Maven. I focus on backend architecture, modularization, and the modernization of legacy systems - delivering clear, maintainable, and production-ready code. I’ve built and maintained systems in banking, trading, and internal enterprise tools. I’m particularly experienced in cleaning up large, outdated codebases: refactoring, extracting modules, and introducing structure where it’s lacking. Beyond Java, Spring, and Maven, I regularly work with: - Persistence & Databases: Hibernate, Blaze-Persistence, Liquibase, Flyway, SQL (PostgreSQL, H2) - Web & Integration: JSF, PrimeFaces, REST APIs, gRPC, Protocol Buffers - Testing: JUnit, Mockito, PowerMock, Testcontainers - Build & DevOps: Jenkins, Docker, Git - Reporting & Documentation: JasperReports, PlantUML Whether you need to break a monolith into modules, modernize a legacy system, or get a chaotic project back under control, I deliver practical solutions without overengineering. I work independently, communicate clearly, and build solid software that lasts. My spoken English is limited. I prefer written communication. Please expect text-first collaboration; I can join brief voice calls for kickoffs or clarifications.
