About

I am an AEM backend developer focused on architecture-quality delivery, performance, and predictable releases. I design and implement backend systems that keep authoring simple for teams and keep production stable under enterprise traffic.

My recent work includes AEMaaCS implementations, dispatcher and caching optimization, MSM-driven multi-site rollouts, and third-party platform integrations using Java services, servlets, and workflow orchestration.

Architecture

Scalable content models, MSM strategy, reusable templates and fragments.

Backend Engineering

Java, OSGi services, Sling models, servlets, schedulers, and workflows.

Performance

Dispatcher configuration, caching strategy, and production troubleshooting.

Cloud Integration

AWS-based integrations, API-driven use cases, and secure service patterns.
