I’m a backend engineer with 8+ years of experience designing and building large-scale distributed systems that power high-traffic consumer platforms. Currently at Flipkart, I work on architecting and scaling backend services for commerce platforms handling peak traffic exceeding 100K+ QPS. My work focuses on designing resilient microservices, optimizing performance-critical systems, and building reliable transaction platforms across cart, checkout, pricing, promotions, and payments. I enjoy solving complex system design problems—especially around scalability, reliability, and distributed data systems. Over the years, I’ve worked extensively with Java, microservices architectures, asynchronous systems, distributed caching, and large-scale data platforms. Previously at JP Morgan Chase, I contributed to high-volume travel booking systems, improving performance and migrating legacy services to Kubernetes-based microservices while enhancing observability and reliability. Technologies I frequently work with include Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, Redis, Cassandra, Aerospike, Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS. I’m particularly interested in building platforms that operate at internet scale, improving engineering productivity, and solving challenging distributed systems problems. Always open to conversations about backend engineering, system design, and high-scale infrastructure.
