Backend developer · Java & Spring Boot · Minecraft networks La Pampa, Argentina (UTC-3) · Open to remote backend roles
I've spent 10 years building Java systems for Minecraft networks — from Spigot/Paper plugins to full multi-server infrastructure — and the last few years leading backend for real-time platforms. I like problems where state has to stay in sync across many servers, the main thread can't block, and everything has to hold up at peak load.
- 3,000+ concurrent players on a network I led backend for, with 1,000+ on a single server with a limited world
- Team lead for 3 developers: architecture, code reviews, Git workflow and coding standards
- ~20% performance gain after refactoring bottleneck subsystems for horizontal scaling
- AI incident triage: console errors and TPS/network lag spikes go through MCP to an AI agent with context of the repos and servers. It attaches Spark profiler and memory data, finds the likely cause and opens a ticket automatically
- Distributed backends: cross-server state sync, messaging and event processing with Redis (pub/sub, sharding, TTL), MongoDB and MySQL
- APIs and services: Spring Boot REST APIs, microservices, shared libraries for logging, metrics and configuration
- Minecraft infrastructure: Velocity proxies, Paper/Spigot plugins, NMS and packets, custom entity AI, async pathfinding
- Ops: Docker, Linux server hardening, monitoring and automation
