Hi there, I’m Bhavik Kothari 👋
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, enterprise-grade solutions. My core expertise lies in Adobe Experience Manager (AEMaaCS), Java, and Cloud Migration. I specialize in architecting headless content delivery systems, automating large-scale migrations, and integrating complex enterprise APIs.
While my professional focus is on Backend Engineering and AEM, I have a strong background in AI/ML and Full Stack Development (React, Python), constantly exploring new ways to blend content strategy with modern tech.
