HI, I'M

Chandana Vanam

I’m an SDE-2 at Deutsche Bank with 4+ years of experience building backend and full-stack applications. My core expertise is in Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, API design, system design, SQL, React, AWS, and Kafka.

I enjoy solving real-world engineering problems and building maintainable, secure, and production-ready systems. I’m particularly interested in scalable backend architecture, system design, and continuously improving my engineering depth.

I graduated from National Institute of Technology (MANIT) Bhopal in 2022 with a B.Tech in ECE and a CGPA of 8.0/10.

Software Engineer II · Deutsche Bank

  • Core contributor to the modernization of Deutsche Bank's legacy wealth management platform from DWO to DWO 2.0, transforming it into a scalable microservices-driven architecture.
  • Implemented JWT-based authentication and stateless session management with filter-based token validation for secure and consistent API access across microservices.
  • Designed and implemented 2 Spring Boot microservices to centralize shared business capabilities, reducing duplication and improving maintainability.
  • Modularized and refactored APIs across 15+ Spring Boot microservices, consolidating redundant services, reducing codebase size by 20% and achieving 3× faster performance in high-traffic workflows.
  • Built a custom Maven archetype with standardized configurations and base implementations, reducing microservice bootstrapping time by 50%.
  • Optimized database schemas, indexing and SQL queries, improving data retrieval by 20–30%.
  • Developed React micro-frontends using Redux Toolkit, RTK Query and Webpack Module Federation, enabling independent deployment and integration.
