About

I build backend systems that don't fall over. 7 years designing and scaling distributed systems — currently the founding backend engineer at AdeptMind, an AI-powered product search engine serving enterprise retailers with catalogs from 100K to millions of SKUs. What I've shipped that actually mattered: → Designed and owned end-to-end an async search architecture (Redis queue + KEDA autoscaling) that cut search timeouts by 75% and drove 10–12% revenue growth across enterprise retail clients → Proactively identified and resolved an ML availability crisis — drove uptime from 94.58% → 99.8% → Built multi-tenant catalog navigation backend with full data isolation across enterprise clients — contributed to 10–12% revenue increase → 90% scheduler performance improvement at MakeMyTrip via distributed query redesign — reduced processing lag from hours to minutes for millions of daily financial transactions Core stack: Go · Python · Java · Apache Kafka · Kubernetes · KEDA · AWS (EKS · SQS · RDS) · Elasticsearch · PostgreSQL · Redis · Docker · OpenTelemetry · Distributed Tracing What I specialize in: → Event-driven architecture and high-throughput async pipelines → High availability systems and reliability engineering → Search infrastructure and ML system integration at scale → Multi-tenant backend architecture M.Tech in Data Analytics — NIT Tiruchirappalli (NIT Trichy) Open to Senior Backend Engineer / Staff Engineer roles at product companies in search, fintech, developer tooling, or infrastructure. 📍 Bangalore | Open to Remote 📩 bhanu.soni27@gmail.com
