Tarique Hayat - Java Backend Developer

My Journey

I'm Tarique Hayat, a Java Backend Developer with 4 years of professional experience specializing in enterprise application development. My expertise centers on building robust, scalable backend systems using Java, Spring Boot, and related technologies, complemented by full-stack capabilities in modern frontend frameworks.

Throughout my career, I've architected and developed enterprise-grade backend services, microservices architectures, and RESTful APIs. My core strengths include Java ecosystem technologies (Spring Boot, Hibernate, JPA), database design with MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle, and implementing comprehensive testing strategies using JUnit and Mockito. On the frontend, I work with Angular and React to deliver complete solutions.

I'm committed to writing clean, maintainable code following best practices and design patterns. My approach emphasizes test-driven development, performance optimization, and delivering solutions that meet both technical requirements and business objectives.
