# Kellen Bavis > Software Engineer at Mindex Location: Beacon, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/kellenbavis Backend Software Engineer with a desire to understand complex systems and build things that matter at scale. I have 2+ years of experience building and maintaining backend applications in fintech and healthcare, working primarily with Java, Spring Boot, Python, Docker, OpenShift, Kafka, and Jenkins. At Mindex, I contribute to both legacy payroll systems and distributed microservices, helping expand core business logic, improve system visibility, and support initiatives that identify and unlock new revenue streams while delivering real business impact. Outside of work, I’m a builder at heart. I’m constantly learning by working on personal projects that span backend-heavy applications, data pipelines, and ML-driven systems, pushing me to explore new technologies and deepen my understanding of system design and data-driven platforms. I’m most excited by backend development and learning by doing, and I’m always open to connecting, collaborating, or building something interesting together.
