About

Backend Software Engineer with strong foundations in C++, Java, DSA, and system-level problem solving, currently working at Blue Yonder on enterprise-scale Transportation Management Systems used by global supply chain leaders. I specialize in building high-performance backend components, resolving production issues at scale, and delivering customer-critical features under strict SLA environments. In my current role: My work spans: • Designing and implementing backend APIs and service-level logic • Building and optimizing core business workflows and data flows • Writing production-grade C++ and Java services with SQL-backed systems • Debugging and fixing live production issues and supporting customer go-lives & escalations • Improving system efficiency through performance-focused optimizations Beyond feature development, I actively take ownership of internal engineering productivity: • Automated internal workflows that were previously manual • Built reusable scripts and tools to simplify repetitive engineering tasks • Created ready-to-use DEV environments on Azure VMs for faster setup • Reduced dependency on shared QA environments by enabling DEV setups • Helped streamline developer onboarding by 2–3× using automation and clean setup processes • Leveraged AI and automation to accelerate routine development and debugging tasks Impact highlights: • Improved backend performance and system efficiency by ~30% • Resolved ~95% of production and customer-reported issues • Contributed to 300+ JIRA items • Helped reduce long-pending product backlog by ~90% My core interests lie in: Backend architecture, distributed systems, performance optimization, system reliability, and building scalable production systems. Tech Stack: C++, Java, SQL, OOPs, Data Structures & Algorithms, REST APIs, System Design I am primarily targeting backend-focused roles in well-established product companies where I can work on large-scale systems, deepen my system design skills, and solve complex engineering problems. 📩Let’s connect.
