  • I love writing code and even more I love to test the code I write through unit and functional tests. I believe programmers these days should not be coupled directly to any specific technology but rather be open minded to adapt to any programming language/paradigm to get the job done efficiently. I believe Change is the only constant factor in the life of a Programmer.
  • I have been working on plenty of Big-data technologies ever since I started with Cerner. I have used Apache Storm (Real time) and mapreduce (Batch Processing) on Hadoop 1.0 extensively to solve problems at scale. I have developed plenty of RPC API's using Java coupled with Guava framework.
  • My IDL of choice are Apache Thrift and Google Protocol buffers. I use junits for my unit testing along with Mockito and jbehave/junits for integration testing. I am a strong believer of continuous integration and will ensure that my builds are always building nightly on Jenkins. I use Splunk for monitoring my logs and also could whip up a Chef recipe to deploy the application I wrote.
  • Some of the technologies I worked with in the past few years are listed below.
    • Sinatra
    • Ruby
    • Python
    • Jenkins
    • Docker
    • Apache Crunch
