## About

Senior Backend Engineer \| Distributed Systems \| System Architecture \| Ex\-Founding Engineer @ KOSH \(YC W20\) I'm a backend engineer with nearly 7 years of experience building scalable distributed systems, high\-availability backend platforms, and real\-time applications\. As a Founding Engineer at KOSH, I helped build and scale products serving 3M\+ registered users across fintech, real\-time communication, workflow automation, and workforce operations\. I began my career building React Native and React applications before transitioning into backend engineering, where I now focus on distributed systems, microservices, databases, and system architecture\. That journey gives me an end\-to\-end perspective on building reliable products \- from client applications to the backend platforms that power them\. Core Expertise • Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Celery, MQTT • Microservices, REST APIs, Distributed Systems • Event\-Driven Architecture, Multi\-Tenant SaaS, Real\-Time Systems • AWS, Docker, Jenkins, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry • React Native, React\.js Highlights • Architected and scaled a multi\-tenant real\-time communication platform using MQTT, RabbitMQ, and asynchronous workers\. • Built event\-driven loan recovery workflows that improved repayment compliance by 20%, increased loan recovery by 18%, and reduced manual effort by \~50%\. • Designed independently deployable microservices for authentication, messaging, workflow automation, and third\-party integrations\. • Improved backend scalability through Redis caching, distributed rate limiting, and concurrency controls\. • Optimized PostgreSQL schema design, indexing strategies, and SQL queries for high\-volume transactional workloads\. • Built offline\-first geospatial tracking and synchronization pipelines for workforce management platforms\. • Led and mentored 15\+ engineers, driving architecture decisions and engineering best practices\. 🏆 IndiaQuotient 30 Under 30 Engineering Awardee \(2024\) I'm also the creator of react\-native\-upi\-pay, an open\-source React Native library for UPI payment integration\. I enjoy solving distributed systems challenges, building scalable backend platforms, and mentoring engineers\. Always happy to connect with people interested in backend engineering, system design, and distributed architectures\. 📌 Portfolio: https://falendra\.dev
