• Developed and implemented RESTful APIs for handling GET and POST requests to enable subscription purchase flow for batches and test series subscriptions by decomposing entire subscriptions into 80% to 90% lower cost sellable products. • Created various 3rd party tools using Retool, an intuitive UI builder, to streamline the business and sales team’s workflow. • Tools included a user subscription details tool, subscription grant and revoke tool, and payment refund tool, all powered by RESTful APIs and asynchronous tasks for the operations in bulk. Used Celery workers and AWS SQS for events.

About

With a solid foundation from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur and hands-on experience at Unacademy, I am poised to excel as a Senior Software Engineer. My journey in the tech world has been marked by impactful contributions, particularly in developing robust payment and order systems using Python Django and AWS. At Unacademy, I enhanced the subscription purchase flow by creating RESTful APIs that decomposed subscriptions into cost-effective products, significantly optimizing processes. In my current role at UnORG, I continue to tackle high-priority issues with tools like Kibana and Grafana while refining customer purchase flows. My technical toolkit includes expertise in relational databases and DevOps practices, ensuring seamless integration and deployment of software solutions. Beyond my professional life, weightlifting and trekking keep me grounded, fostering resilience and stress management. I'm eager to leverage my skills to drive innovation and efficiency in your organization. Let's connect to explore how I can contribute to your team's success.
