10+ years designing event-driven microservices, real-time pipelines, and cloud-native platforms. Java · Spring Boot · Kafka · AWS. Currently at ŽEJN Group in Ljubljana.
I'm Brahmaiah — a Senior Software Engineer at ŽEJN Group in Ljubljana, Slovenia, holding an EU Blue Card. My decade-long career spans fintech credit card platforms processing 8M+ customer records, event-driven document pipelines, and cloud-native systems across 50+ microservices.
What drives me isn't just shipping code — it's designing systems that handle real-world chaos gracefully. I think in Kafka topics, circuit breakers, and SLA budgets.
Outside engineering, I'm building a Telugu-language YouTube channel for children's stories, exploring Europe, and constantly reading about distributed systems.
High-throughput ingestion using Kafka, DLQs, and Spring Boot consumers with exactly-once semantics. 50K+ docs/day.
Intelligent classification integrating OpenAI and Anthropic APIs with cost-optimized routing and fallback strategies.
Payment microservices for Synchrony Financial — 8M+ records, zero audit findings, 99.95% uptime.
Container orchestration with Minikube — MongoDB deployments, webapp services, networking on macOS.
Python/ReportLab system generating ATS-optimized, JD-specific PDF resumes with regional formatting.
Event-driven architecture, Kafka internals, and system design at scale.
Technical leadership, architecture ownership, cross-team influence.
Infrastructure for AI workloads — model serving, vector pipelines, inference.
Building a Telugu-language YouTube channel with animated Panchatantra-style moral stories for children.
Based in Ljubljana, exploring Europe — from tulip season in the Netherlands to weekend adventures across the continent.
Distributed systems books, Kubernetes labs, and AI tooling. The best engineers never stop learning.
Structured routines and product research — the same analytical mindset applied to self-care.
If you're building with distributed systems, event-driven architecture, or cloud-native platforms — I'd love to hear from you.
Whether it's a role, a collaboration, or a conversation about Kafka partition strategies — I'm always happy to connect.
