Technical Skills (Java, Spring, Python)

Q1: Can you walk us through a recent project where you built a scalable application using Java and Spring Boot? A: Absolutely. In my previous role, I led the development of a microservices-based system using Java with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. The app handled real-time financial transactions and was deployed on AWS ECS. I focused on building stateless services, applied best practices like API versioning, and used Eureka for service discovery. The result was a 40% improvement in performance and easier scalability under load.

Q2: What has been your experience with Python in data processing? A: I’ve used Python for ETL pipelines, specifically for ingesting large volumes of compliance data into cloud storage. I utilized Pandas and NumPy for processing, and scheduled tasks with Apache Airflow. The flexibility of Python was key in automating data validation and transformation before feeding it into analytics dashboards.

Cloud & DevOps

Q3: Describe your experience deploying applications on AWS or Azure. A: Most of my cloud experience has been with AWS. I’ve deployed containerized Java applications to AWS ECS and used RDS for relational storage. I also integrated S3 for static content and Lambda for lightweight compute tasks. In one project, I implemented CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and CodePipeline to automate deployments and rollbacks.

Q4: How have you used Docker or Kubernetes in past projects? A: I've containerized all backend services using Docker and deployed them on Kubernetes clusters (EKS). I wrote Helm charts for managing deployments and set up autoscaling rules. This improved uptime and made releases smoother, especially during traffic spikes.

Collaboration & Agile Practices

Q5: How do you typically work with product owners and cross-functional teams? A: I follow Agile practices, attending sprint planning and daily stand-ups. I work closely with product owners to break down features into stories, clarify acceptance criteria, and provide early feedback. My goal is to ensure technical feasibility while keeping business impact in focus.

Q6: Have you had to define technical design or architecture? A: Yes, I’ve been responsible for defining the technical design for multiple features. For instance, I designed an event-driven architecture for a compliance alerting system using Kafka, Java, and Spring Cloud Streams. I created UML diagrams and API contracts to guide other developers.

Testing & Quality

Q7: What’s your approach to testing (unit, integration, automation)? A: I use JUnit and Mockito for unit testing, and Spring’s Test framework for integration tests. For end-to-end automation, I’ve worked with Selenium and REST Assured. I integrate these tests into Jenkins pipelines to ensure code quality with every push.

Behavioral / Cultural Fit

Q8: How do you stay updated with emerging technologies? A: I subscribe to newsletters like InfoQ and follow GitHub trending repositories. I also take part in hackathons and complete Udemy/Coursera courses. Recently, I explored Quarkus and Micronaut to compare their performance with Spring Boot in cloud-native environments.

Q9: Tell us about a time you challenged the status quo or proposed a modern tech solution. A: At my last job, I noticed performance issues due to a legacy monolith. I advocated for a microservices transition. I led a proof-of-concept using Spring Boot and Docker, which gained leadership buy-in. We eventually reduced deployment time by 70% and improved maintainability.

Bonus: Domain Experience

Q10: Do you have experience supporting back-office teams like Compliance or Finance? A: Yes, I’ve built reporting tools for Compliance and data reconciliation systems for Finance. I understand the importance of data accuracy and audit trails, and have used role-based access and logging mechanisms to meet regulatory requirements.

Good morning from Charlottesville, Virginia! ☕️

PS5 owners really want to play Xbox games, as Microsoft tops Sony’s preorder charts

From an outsiders perspective this makes sense given Microsoft’s move to purchase extremely popular game studios. They should absolutely make sure everything they create is playable on PlayStation. It’s kind of been Microsoft’s M.O. all along. Write software that runs anywhere. 👨🏻‍💻

The other day, I was reading an interesting article about moving away from social media siloes and getting back to basics with a domain and a web page. (Neocities is also a nice place to learn HTML markup and put up a home page.) I liked the article and was looking forward to leaving a comment, BUT when I got to the bottom of the post, I was confronted with a prompt to sign up for a membership. Really? To leave a comment? Especially on an article about the small web?

Of course this is about Substack. It is, along with X, an internet Nazi bar and it’s full of amazing writers supporting it.

Money talks, I guess. 😞

A major Tesla investor has called on Elon Musk to step down as head of the company as a nationwide boycott causes stock prices to plunge.

Ross Gerber, who owns an estimated $105 million in shares of Tesla stock, called on Elon Musk to step down as head of the company, saying that he “destroyed” the company’s reputation

Does anyone know what Tesla is up to anymore? It’s just sitting there, not making progress. It was once a bright shining star. Now it’s a losing afterthought. Wonder why?

Tesla board, fire Musk.🔥

Red Bull only has itself to blame for its driver mess

It’s really incredible to see Red Bull panicking over two races with, in essence, a rookie driver. They fire Danny Ricardo and Sergio Perez in favor of Liam Lawson — over Yuki Tsunoda — and expect the man to be top 10, or better, on day one. Absurd.

Red Bull has competition, that’s it. McLaren has caught up and Mercedes is show some of their old spark. Not to mention Alex Albon keeping Williams in a good spot.

I’d expect Ferrari to show some teeth soon. It’s gonna get really interesting! 🏎️

Fiona Jackson • TechRepublic

Once upon a time, landing a job at the likes of Amazon, Google, or Microsoft was seen as the golden ticket — offering generous salaries, four-day work weeks, and nap pods. Over the last few years, though, that image has been transformed into one that is far less idyllic, marked with mass layoffs and employees sleeping on the office floor.

Basically the BigCo’s are returning to the way they used to be. When I was at Microsoft everyone worked long hours moving as fast as we could to meet deadlines. My nap pod was the floor under my desk where I’d grab some shuteye as I worked overnight. I’d imagine I worked an average of 60 hours a week for months on end.

It’s not a good way to live. It’s hard on you physically and mentally and if you have a family it punishes them.

I do not recommend doing it.

Rebuilding Prime Video UI with Rust and WebAssembly

This link is to a video and slides for the presentation. I didn’t watch it but I thought I’d share it because I do find this interesting.

The browser as operating system feels more than a bit odd. Folks like Apple, Mozilla, Google, and Microsoft really need to put way more effort into tooling to make it better for developers. As a developer I want a full IDE with real debugging support, no matter the language I choose. Perhaps they’re already there and I’m just naive?

I’m still a bit bitter WebAssembly was chosen over a CLI implementation — ECMA-335 — that runs in the browser. But, at least we have something common for browsers and languages to target.

It is strange to take this low level language and spit out WebAssembly. ⚒️

Researchers have found that ChatGPT “power users,” or those who use it the most and at the longest durations, are becoming dependent upon — or even addicted to — the chatbot.

It was inevitable, right?

Each new version of macOS has increased the complexity of launching apps, from the basics of launchd, the addition of LaunchServices, to security checks on notarization and XProtect.

If you’d like to see a really nice overview of how macOS launches apps, this is for you! 🚀

It’s not crazy technical, an intentional choice by the author, and will give you an understanding of how things work when you start up your favorite application.

In this post, I assume that vibe coding will grow up and people will use it for real engineering, with the “turn your brain off” version of it sticking around just for prototyping and fun projects. For me, vibe coding just means letting the AI do the work. How closely you choose to pay attention to the AI’s work depends solely on the problem at hand. For production, you pay attention; for prototypes, you chill. Either way, it’s vibe coding if you didn’t write it by hand.

Vibe coding is the new way I guess.

As someone who has spent over 30-years struggling to become better each and every day I find this depressing. I know I’m an ok developer. Not the worst and certainly not the best, not even close. But to spend a lifetime at something only to see folks produce more output without even trying is extremely discouraging.

Craftsmanship goes out the window in favor of expediency. It is the new way and we’re all going to have to get used to it or be left behind.

I’ve finally become a dinosaur. 🦕
