## About

𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫 \| 𝐈𝐈𝐓 \(𝐁𝐇𝐔\) 𝐀𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐧𝐮𝐬 👨🏻‍💻 Passionate about architecting scalable systems with measurable business impact\. I build the backend systems that move money and orders at scale\. At PharmEasy, I designed and solely operate a orchestration service that processes 3\.3M\+ requests a month at about 99\.99% success\. Most of my work lives in three places: payments, high\-throughput APIs, and config\-driven platforms that let the business move without waiting on engineering\. I work mainly in Java and Spring Boot, on event\-driven event pipelines backed by SQL Server, MySQL, and Redis, shipped on K8s\. The problems I enjoy most are the unglamorous ones — concurrency, idempotency, and keeping money\-critical systems correct under load\. A few things I've shipped recently: I migrated all partners onto a new payments stack with zero production incidents and retired the legacy service behind them; I removed a global lock from a 30k\-orders\-a\-day pipeline and replaced it with a lock\-free design that cut p95 latency from \~4\.9s to \~1\.1s and tripled concurrency on the same database; and I built a config\-driven lead platform that turned new\-partner onboarding from a week of code and a redeploy into a configuration change\. Beyond shipping features, I spend a lot of my time making the team faster\. I mentor interns and junior engineers, review designs and code to keep regressions out, take designs through review with our architect, and build reusable tooling such as testing, error\-handling, and alerting frameworks that other services have adopted\. I've won PharmEasy's Value Champion award twice\. 🚀 𝐋𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞\! 🎯 I'm currently exploring Senior Backend / SDE\-2 roles at companies working on payments, distributed systems, or platform infrastructure\. If that's the kind of problem your team is solving, I'd love to talk\. Let’s solve complex challenges with elegant code\!

## Work experience

Software Engineer at PharmEasy, Mar 2024 \- Present · 2 yrs 6 mos, Hybrid, • Designed, built, and run our payment orchestration service end to end as its sole engineer\. It gates every order on fundamental of 'no wallet balance, no order' and processes 3\.3M\+ transactions a month, roughly ₹70 Cr in payments, at about 99\.99% success with high throughput\. I migrated every partners onto it from the legacy system with zero production incidents and earning the Value Champion award\. • Eliminated a concurrency bottleneck in our 30k\-orders\-a\-day by replacing a service\-level Redis lock with a lock\-free, row\-level claim that gives every order a unique number with no duplicates\. On the same database and logic, p95 latency dropped by 77%, concurrency rose from 30 to 100, and weekly order failures fell from some hundereds to near zero\. • Built a config\-driven, multi\-tenant lead platform on Spring Boot, MySQL, and Kafka\. Moving partner intake rules out of code and into configuration which is backed by a reusable 23\-rule validation engine and cut new\-partner onboarding from about a week of development and a redeploy to a configuration change\. • Automated payment reconciliation with a self\-healing job that consolidated four per\-bank processes into one and drove manual escalations from a dozen in a week to zero, and led the multiple stories which contribute significantly into revenue\. • Automated Google Appointment Redirection by designing SFTP feed uploads with Spring Scheduler, enabling real\-time synchronization across Google Search & Maps\. • Performance Monitoring & DevOps: Utilized Kubernetes, Instana, Datadog, and Grafana for end\-to\-end monitoring and optimization of high\-traffic systems, ensuring uptime and performance through proactive data analysis\. Tech: Java · Spring Boot · Spring AOP · Kafka · Redis · SQL Server · MySQL · JPA/Hibernate · Kubernetes · Argo Rollouts · Docker · AWS

Software Developer at Sciforn, Jun 2023 \- Feb 2024 · 9 mos, Pune District, Maharashtra, India, • Cross\-Border Payment Solutions: Pioneered secure ‘Direct Debit’ and ‘Credit Transfer’ payment modes in the gateway, leveraging Single Euro Payment Area \(SEPA\) compliance to streamline cross\-border transactions within the EU, ensuring regulatory adherence and seamless fund transfers\. • Fraud Prevention & Automation: Designed an end\-to\-end automated system for payment initiation, settlement, and bulk uploads, reducing fraudulent activities by 40% and enhancing operational efficiency by 34% through rigorous validation workflows\. • XML Integration & Compliance: Developed bots to generate PACS, CAMT, and PAIN XML formats, enabling automated payment clearance via the European Banking Authority \(EBA\), improving system performance by 15% while strengthening security protocols\. • System Scalability & Maintenance: Engineered robust solutions using C\#, ASP\.NET Core, and SQL within a monolithic architecture, ensuring high availability and scalability for payment processing systems\.

Senior Advisor at Technex, IIT \(BHU\) Varanasi, Jan 2023 \- May 2023 · 5 mos, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India

Software Development Engineer at Subspace \- Grow90, May 2022 \- Jul 2022 · 3 mos, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, • Frontend Performance Optimization: Revitalized a high\-traffic web app by integrating React\.js and GraphQL for dynamic server data fetching, reducing server response time by 23% and enhancing user experience through optimized API interactions\. • UI/UX Modernization: Refactored core modules \(Dashboard, Authorization, Transactions\) using React Hooks and TypeScript, achieving a 25% reduction in rendering time and 15% performance boost via query optimization and code\-splitting strategies\. • Mobile\-First Feature Development: Collaborated cross\-functionally to design a multi\-service categorization system with Material\-UI, adopting mobile\-first principles to drive a 35% increase in user traffic and improve accessibility across devices\. • Cross\-Technical Integration: Streamlined frontend\-backend workflows using GraphQL schemas and TypeScript interfaces, ensuring type\-safe data handling and reducing runtime errors by 20%\.
