PROFILE

Njabulo

Njabulo Mwandla developed and enhanced backend features for the eugenp/tutorials repository over six months, focusing on observability, resilience, and deployment flexibility. He integrated OpenTelemetry and New Relic APM for distributed tracing and performance monitoring, using Java, Spring Boot, and configuration management to enable proactive incident response. Njabulo implemented load shedding and priority-based request handling in Quarkus microservices, improving reliability under high load. He also introduced a Maven toolchains module with Protocol Buffers for flexible builds and standardized serialization. His work included a cloud-connected Book Management system with JPA and PostgreSQL, demonstrating depth in scalable, production-ready engineering solutions.
