## About

I'm a Backend and Platform Engineer with 2\+ years of experience building cloud\-native systems, distributed platforms, and Database\-as\-a\-Service \(DBaaS\) solutions on Kubernetes and OpenStack\. My primary focus is designing and developing scalable backend services in Go, automating infrastructure operations, and building highly available database platforms\. I've worked extensively with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB, managing 100\+ production database instances while implementing automated provisioning, backup/recovery, replication management, observability, and self\-healing workflows — reducing MTTR by 70% and improving p99 API latency by 35%\. Earlier in my career, I built core IAM services \(session management, RBAC, forgot\-password workflows\), VPC Security Group microservices, and contributed to the LBaaS v2 redesign — giving me end\-to\-end experience across identity, networking, and platform infrastructure\. Areas of interest: • Distributed Systems &amp; Backend Engineering • Platform Engineering &amp; Kubernetes/Cloud Infrastructure • Database Platforms &amp; High Availability • Go \(Golang\) &amp; Observability/Reliability Engineering Tech Stack: Go, Python, Node\.js, Kubernetes, Docker, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse, Valkey, Kafka, RabbitMQ, Terraform, Helm, Prometheus, OpenStack, AWS, REST APIs, CI/CD\. Open to connecting with engineers and teams working on large\-scale backend systems, cloud platforms, and developer infrastructure\.
