About

I build distributed systems that process millions of events reliably — using Scala 3, ZIO, Apache Kafka, and Apache Spark. 10+ years designing and delivering high-throughput, fault-tolerant backend systems in Scala. Currently Lead Software Engineer at Avlino, Bengaluru, building event-driven platforms for real-time data processing. ─── WHAT I BUILD ─────────────────────────────────────────── ✦ Real-time event streaming pipelines (Kafka + ZIO Streams) ✦ Distributed microservices with ZIO + ZIO HTTP ✦ Big data processing at scale (Apache Spark, Delta Lake) ✦ Type-safe functional backends (Scala 3, Cats Effect, ZIO 2) ✦ Event-sourced systems with CQRS and SAGA patterns ✦ PostgreSQL performance tuning and schema design ─── TECHNICAL STACK ─────────────────────────────────────── Languages: Scala 3, Rust, Python, Java 21 FP/Reactive: ZIO 2, Cats Effect, Akka/Pekko, Akka Streams Streaming: Apache Kafka, ZIO Kafka, Apache Flink Big Data: Apache Spark, Databricks, Delta Lake HTTP: ZIO HTTP, Play Framework, Pekko HTTP Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, AWS ─── RECENT BUILDS ──────────────────────────────────────── - Attendance Management Platform — ZIO 2, ZIO HTTP, Kafka, PostgreSQL, full CQRS with event-driven architecture - Distributed Rate Limiter — ZIO + Redis, Token Bucket + Sliding Window algorithms, production-grade with metrics - Event Sourcing Platform — Kafka as event store, ZIO Streams projections, real-time read model rebuilding ─── WHAT SETS ME APART ───────────────────────────────────── Most Scala engineers use frameworks. I understand the internals. I can debug a ZIO fiber leak, tune a Kafka consumer group, read a Spark explain plan, and design a schema that holds up under 10M events/day. 10 years of scars and solutions. Open to senior/staff/architect Scala roles — full-time or contract. Remote-first preferred. Open to Bengaluru on-site for the right role. 📧 dkkashyap.dev@gmail.com 🔗 github.com/Er-dhirendra
