• Built and shipped the Saved Payment Methods API on Postgres + Redis, serving 1Cr+ calls/month in production (used by Zepto). Drove ~15% conversion lift on the surfaces consuming it. • Built a production RAG-based code generation tool (Python + OpenAI + Claude) that generates service-layer code at 93% field-level accuracy on real production schemas — cut manual onboarding effort for new gateway integrations significantly. • Owned end-to-end backend integration for xPay and EnKash as the sole engineer — covering UPI, cards, wallets, netbanking, and BIN-based international card validation, with RBI-compliance flows. • Contributed to ART v2 (our distributed replay framework: Kafka MSK → S3 → AWS Glue on Kubernetes) by adding local Mac-based execution using OrbStack + Ministack + /etc/hosts DNS routing — cut infra cost by ~70% for the team. • Built a Slack PR reviewer bot with Git-history-aware routing for critical PRs — 40% reduction in review turnaround.

• Developed and optimized REST APIs to enhance the functionality of Cyware Orchestrate for Security Operations Center (SoC) analysis. • Built standalone GenAI connectors (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Mistral AI, Azure OpenAI) on the SOAR platform — each with SOC analyst prompt templates, JSON-enforced output, and configurable retry logic. • Built and optimized 400+ third-party API connectors on Cyware's SOAR platform — ~20% perf gain. • Collaborated with cross-functional teams to design and implement effective playbooks, improving incident response times. • Analyzed security incidents as a SOAR analyst, leading to a 80% increase in operational efficiency.

About

Immediately Available, Backend engineer at Juspay. What I've shipped that I can talk about: — A production RAG codegen tool (Python + OpenAI + Claude) generating service-layer code at 93% field-level accuracy on real production schemas — A high-traffic Saved Payment Methods API on Postgres + Redis, serving 1Cr+ calls/month (used by Zepto) — Contributed to our distributed replay pipeline (Kafka MSK → S3 → Glue on K8s); added local Mac-based execution using OrbStack + Ministack + /etc/hosts DNS routing — cut infra cost ~70% for the team Before Juspay, I was a backend SDE intern at Cyware Labs (Aug 2024 – June 2025), working on their SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation & Response) platform. Shipped standalone GenAI connectors (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, Azure OpenAI), and built and optimized 400+ third-party API connectors — ~20% perf gain. Daily tools: Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot. Stack: Python, AWS, Kafka, Postgres, Redis, Kubernetes. Open to backend / applied AI SDE roles. 📩 akshar.an.anup@gmail.com
