About

I am a Software Engineer specializing in backend development, distributed microservices, and scalable IoT architectures. I thrive on optimizing data ingestion pipelines and building resilient, event-driven systems. Most recently at Firewires OneIoT, I scaled a multi-tenant platform by optimizing TimescaleDB and PostgreSQL architectures, reducing bulk API latency by 50x through Redis caching strategies and query optimization. I also quadrupled message throughput across 8 Node.js/TypeScript microservices by tuning Kafka consumer concurrency and implementing robust Dead-Letter Queue (DLQ) retry mechanisms. Beyond IoT, I am currently architecting an event-driven financial intelligence platform using Go, Kafka, and TimescaleDB, featuring JWT-based Auth and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). This builds on my previous experience developing secure, full-stack applications with React, Next.js, and Node.js I am a proven technical leader and problem-solver, having led an 80+ member robotics team to a national All India Rank 16 and winning the Smart India Hackathon 2023. Whether I am building a heavy backend system in Go or optimizing a production database, I am driven by performance, security, and scalable design

Work experience

Full Stack Engineer at HousinGram, Jun 2026 - Present · 4 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Software Engineer at Self Employed, Apr 2026 - May 2026 · 2 mos, Akola, Maharashtra, India, Dedicated phase focused on architecting full-stack SaaS applications and studying the end-to-end lifecycle of building a product-based software company. Transitioned from building isolated technical projects to engineering invaluable, market-ready products by leveraging modern infrastructure and AI-accelerated workflows. Core Contributions: Full-Stack & SaaS Architecture: Designed and explored modern full-stack architectures, integrating containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and serverless databases (Neon DB) to build resilient, scalable products. AI-Powered Development: Drastically accelerated the development, prototyping, and debugging lifecycles by integrating AI tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Lovable into the daily engineering workflow. End-to-End Infrastructure: Managed comprehensive deployment pipelines, including API hosting, DNS management, and cloud infrastructure, ensuring products are production-ready from day one. Product Strategy: Shifted focus from purely technical execution to a founder's mindset—prioritizing user value, product development strategies, and the foundational steps of building an independent software business.

Backend Engineer (Contractual) at Finlens - month-end close automation, Mar 2026 - Apr 2026 · 2 mos, San Francisco, California, United States, Architected and developed an automated Reconciliation System for Finlens, designed to accurately match bank statements against internal ledgers. Built with NestJS and TypeScript, the system leverages multi-stage document extraction and an algorithmic matching engine to streamline complex financial operations. Core Contributions: Algorithmic Matching Engine: Engineered a weighted scoring system that dynamically classifies records as MATCHED, DISCREPANCY, or UNMATCHED based on configurable parameters (Amount 50%, Date 20%, Description 20%, Reference 10%). Resilient Data Extraction: Designed a fault-tolerant, multi-strategy PDF extraction pipeline utilizing pdf-parse, pdftotext, and tesseract.js OCR, achieving zero silent parse failures during ingestion. Backend Architecture: Developed a robust backend foundation using NestJS and TypeScript to handle complex financial data processing and maintain high system reliability.

Technical Product Manager at HATS, Dec 2025 - Mar 2026 · 4 mos, Pune City, Maharashtra, India, Stepped in as an active founding member and technical product lead to architect the core platform and drive early business growth. I bridged the gap between high-level business strategy and hands-on engineering execution, managing everything from system architecture to investor relations. Core Contributions: Product & Technical Leadership: Led the product strategy and technical execution for core features, including IoT integrations, real-time analytics dashboards, and comprehensive fleet management modules. Strategic Roadmapping: Defined product outlines and managed the end-to-end execution of both technical features and non-technical business schemes. Founding Member Initiatives: Wore multiple hats to accelerate early-stage growth, actively driving business development, building strategic industry networks, and connecting with potential investors.

Associate Software Engineer at OneIoT, Mar 2025 - Nov 2025 · 9 mos, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, At OneIoT, I contributed to the development of a robust IoT platform by engineering backend systems that manage real-time telemetry and device management. I optimized message processing and API performance, significantly enhancing system reliability and observability. My work included implementing advanced indexing strategies and developing a custom LLM agent for AI-driven incident management, showcasing my commitment to innovation in the IoT space.
