I build backend systems that handle money and I take that responsibility seriously. I've spent 3 years building payment systems, at a fintech startup and inside the payments layer of a logistics platform. At Prayas Financial Services, I architected PrayasPe, a platform integrating 30+ payment flows that brings digital financial services to users in remote areas across India. At LOBB, I owned the partner integration layer connecting payments, logistics, and vendor systems, and independently built a full premium subscription system on Razorpay, handling everything from webhook processing to proration logic and retry flows. I can take a product requirement, figure out the architecture, build it, ship it, and maintain it. That's the kind of engineer I've had to be, and it's the kind I want to keep being. My stack: Python, Django, FastAPI, ReactJS, AWS, Docker, Redis, PostgreSQL Currently open to remote backend roles at product companies, India or global. If you're building something where the backend actually matters, let's talk. 📍 Bengaluru, India · Open to 100% Remote
