About

I am a Senior Platform and Backend Engineer with 6+ years of experience designing, operating, and scaling mission-critical distributed systems. My core expertise sits at the intersection of high-performance Golang backends, Kubernetes orchestration, cloud-native networking (Envoy/NGINX), and intelligent developer tooling. Currently, as a Senior Consultant at Thoughtworks, I drive the backend and platform infrastructure for a global automotive map release platform (Mercedes-Benz)—managing 45+ Go-based microservices that process millions of vehicle requests with strict latency, reliability, and security SLAs. Key Highlights of My Production Work: • Zero-Downtime Networking Migrations: Led the full infrastructure migration from legacy Ingress-NGINX to Envoy Proxy on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), optimizing traffic routing, circuit breaking, and latency for global workloads. • Distributed Observability: Modernized telemetry from unmanaged ELK to Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK), improving MTTR, shard scalability, and observability infrastructure cost-efficiency. • Platform Architecture & Cost Optimization: Redesigned vehicle update distribution models via chained/differential downloads, slashing cross-region data transfer overhead. • Identity & Fraud Engines: Designed and launched identity verification and ML/vector-based fraud detection services from scratch at Jukshio, handling high-throughput authentication flows. • Agentic Platform Engineering: Proactively building internal developer platform (IDP) copilots leveraging vector search and LLM agents to automate root cause analysis and configuration drift detection. Core Technical Competencies: • Languages: Golang (Advanced Concurrency, Zero-Allocation Profiling), Python, PHP • Cloud & Orchestration: Kubernetes (AKS, EKS), Docker, Helm, ArgoCD, Terraform, Azure, AWS • Networking & Service Edge: Envoy Proxy, Ingress-NGINX, gRPC, REST, API Gateways • Observability & Data: ECK (Elastic Cloud on K8s), Prometheus, Grafana, Kafka, Redis, PostgreSQL, Vector Databases (Qdrant/Milvus) • Architecture: Distributed Systems, High-Concurrency Patterns, Multi-Region Resilience, DevEx 🌍 Fully equipped for asynchronous, high-ownership remote roles across US, European, and APAC time zones. 📫 Reach out via LinkedIn messaging or email at singhamarsingh555@gmail.com.
