I design and build enterprise order management, fulfillment, AI-powered customer experiences, and cloud-native integrations using IBM Sterling OMS, Sterling Intelligent Promising (SIP), Java, OpenShift, and modern web technologies.
I'm Kulasekaran Krishnaraj, an Associate Software Engineer at Adaptive Development Private Limited, an IBM Silver Business Partner specializing in enterprise commerce and IBM Sterling solutions. I hold a BCA degree and have 2+ years of professional experience building production systems around IBM Sterling OMS.
My daily work involves designing and developing enterprise integrations — building REST APIs, custom Java services, middleware and cloud-native applications that connect IBM Sterling OMS with warehouse management systems, logistics platforms, AI services and external enterprise systems across the full order lifecycle.
I work primarily in enterprise retail, e-commerce and omnichannel order fulfillment. What differentiates my approach is building complete enterprise ecosystems around OMS — not just Sterling customizations in isolation, but the full picture: warehouse management, logistics automation, AI assistants, middleware, payment services and cloud infrastructure working together as one coherent system.
Currently exploring Enterprise AI Assistants, Agentic AI workflows, Tool Calling with LLMs, IBM Sterling Intelligent Promising (SIP) and cloud-native architecture on OpenShift.
At Adaptive Development, an IBM Silver Business Partner, my work spans the full enterprise commerce stack — from OMS configuration to cloud-native deployments.
Building IBM Sterling OMS customizations — REST APIs, custom Java services, pipelines, user exits, service definitions and agent configurations that support complex order lifecycle requirements.
Designing and developing Java Spring Boot middleware that connects IBM Sterling OMS with warehouse management systems, logistics platforms, payment services and external enterprise APIs.
Integrating LLMs with OMS using tool calling and agentic patterns — building AI assistants that retrieve live order, inventory and fulfillment data to answer customer and operator questions accurately.
Containerizing enterprise Java applications with Docker, deploying on IBM Cloud OpenShift with externalized configuration, health monitoring, rolling deployments and production observability.

> designing IBM Sterling OMS customizations and integrations Built over 2+ years at an IBM Silver Business Partner — covering OMS, integrations, AI and cloud-native deployment.
End-to-end OMS development — customizations, REST APIs, pipelines, user exits, service definitions, agents and integration framework for the complete order lifecycle.
EDI and partner integrations, API gateways and document transformation workflows that connect enterprise ecosystems reliably — no fragile point-to-point connections.
Exploring IBM Sterling Intelligent Promising for AI-powered inventory availability and delivery commitment — connecting real-time fulfillment data with intelligent promising engines.
Java Spring Boot middleware connecting OMS with WMS, ERP, logistics and payment providers — with circuit breaker, retry, idempotency, correlation IDs and full audit logging.
Tool calling, agentic AI workflows and LLM integration patterns that connect generative AI with live OMS data — accurate answers grounded in real business systems, not hallucination.
Containerized Java applications deployed on IBM Cloud OpenShift — externalized configuration, rolling deployments, health checks, observability and production-ready DevOps patterns.
These are not concepts. They are integrations and accelerators built around IBM Sterling and enterprise needs.
A conversational AI assistant that integrates with IBM Sterling OMS using Gemini LLM and tool calling, enabling customers to get real-time order status, inventory availability, and fulfillment answers through natural language.
Integrated IBM Sterling OMS with Odoo Warehouse Management System using Java middleware and REST APIs, synchronizing sales orders, inventory, shipment confirmation and fulfillment status between both platforms.
Connected IBM Sterling OMS with Fleetbase logistics platform using webhooks and Java middleware to automate shipment creation, driver assignment, delivery tracking and status synchronization — eliminating manual handoffs between OMS and 3PL.
Java Spring Boot middleware deployed on IBM Cloud OpenShift that orchestrates communication between IBM Sterling OMS, Odoo WMS, Fleetbase, and payment providers — with circuit breaker patterns, audit logging, correlation IDs and container-native deployment.
At Adaptive Development, I work with enterprise clients on IBM Sterling implementations where reliability is not optional. An integration that fails silently or a fulfillment pipeline that breaks under load creates real business impact — lost orders, incorrect inventory, unhappy customers.
My goal is to build systems that are honest about their state, recoverable when they fail, and maintainable by the next engineer. That applies equally to OMS pipelines, Java middleware, and AI integrations. Complexity is unavoidable in enterprise commerce. Making it manageable is the job.
I'm open to enterprise commerce opportunities, IBM Sterling projects, system integrations and AI-driven commerce solutions. If you're working on OMS, omnichannel fulfillment or modern commerce platforms — I'd be happy to connect.
