Senior Java & Cloud Engineer · 7+ years

Senior Java engineer for complex backend and cloud systems.

I build and modernize production applications using Java, Spring Boot and AWS. Across identity, payments, enterprise SaaS and multi-system product platforms, I take ownership from technical diagnosis and design through implementation, validation and production readiness.

Engineering profile

Backend depth with product-level ownership.

I contribute where implementation depth and system understanding matter: designing APIs, untangling legacy behavior, integrating external systems and taking production defects from symptom to verified fix.

Java backend development

Spring Boot services, REST/OpenAPI contracts, domain logic, persistence, testing and maintainable integration code.

AWS application engineering

Lambda, API Gateway, S3, RDS, CloudWatch, CloudFront, Secrets Manager, deployment flows and serverless integrations.

Production engineering

Cross-service debugging, log and payload analysis, root-cause isolation, performance work and incident-focused fixes.

Modernization & refactoring

Incremental upgrades, decomposition of large services, safer state transitions, regression protection and CI/CD readiness.

Identity & secure integrations

OAuth2, OIDC, JWT, SAML, RBAC, payment APIs, partner systems, retries, idempotency and auditability.

Full-stack delivery

React/TypeScript and Vue/Nuxt experience for features and defects that cross API, state-management and UI boundaries.

Selected engineering work

Development work across production systems.

Employer and client identities are anonymized except Sony. Each case focuses on the engineering problem, my contribution and the technical decisions involved.

How I contribute

Technical ownership without losing implementation depth.

Build

Production Java services, API contracts, data workflows, integrations and end-to-end application features.

Diagnose

Incorrect state, API mismatches, authorization failures, data mapping defects and cross-system production issues.

Improve

Legacy structure, testing, resilience, observability, performance, deployment confidence and maintainability.

Experience

Enterprise engineering since 2019.

About

A senior engineer who stays close to the implementation.

I’m Sangamesh Gadag, a Java-focused software engineer based in Bengaluru. I have delivered production systems in both product and consulting environments, including Sony, while working directly with engineering, product and business stakeholders.

I am most effective on backend-heavy work that requires more than closing a ticket: understanding the system, challenging unsafe assumptions, choosing practical trade-offs, implementing the change and validating it across service boundaries.

Strong Java, Spring and API design fundamentals

Hands-on AWS delivery

Production debugging across distributed systems

Secure identity, payments and partner integrations

Technical ownership with clear communication
