Poojith Reddy Annachedu.

I’m a software engineer who loves the intersection of backend engineering and applied AI. My focus is designing reliable, scalable systems - clean architectures, clear contracts, and performance-first services - so teams can move fast without breaking things. On the Java side, I work with Spring Boot, Kafka, and cloud-native microservices, pairing CI/CD, containers, and observability to keep systems resilient and maintainable. On the AI side, I build orchestration layers, agentic workflows, and retrieval-backed experiences that automate complex tasks and improve developer and user outcomes. What drives me is turning complexity into simple, durable solutions. I enjoy tackling distributed systems problems, evolving cloud architectures, and shipping AI-enabled features that create real leverage for engineering teams. Open to full-time roles where Java backends and AI move from proof-of-concept to production.
