SDE\-2 at Atlassian \| Designing Scalable, Reliable Systems \| Full\-Stack \| System Design & Microservices

## About

Hello\! I’m Jagdish 👋 I’m a Full\-Stack Engineer with 7\+ years of experience building scalable, high\-performance systems from concept to production\. Frontend: React\.js, JavaScript, HTML, CSS Backend: Java, Spring Boot, Node\.js, Python \(FastAPI, Django\) Databases: SQL & NoSQL DevOps & Cloud: Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, AWS Architecture: Microservices, Distributed Systems, Kafka AI Interest: Generative AI & applied ML systems I focus on building systems that are not just functional — but scalable, reliable, maintainable, and production\-ready\. After a journey of 100\+ interviews, countless rejections, near misses, and lessons, I’m proud to have joined Atlassian as SDE\-2\. This journey tested everything — patience, confidence, discipline, and belief\. Over the past months, I interviewed with some of the world’s top companies including Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, Oracle, Walmart, PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, SAP, Salesforce, Adobe, Nutanix, Cohesity, Agoda, Morgan Stanley, and many more\. I reached final rounds at multiple top product companies\. Some opportunities slipped by inches — but each experience strengthened my: Data Structures & Algorithms fundamentals System Design & Scalable Architecture thinking Backend Engineering depth Problem\-solving under pressure Behavioral storytelling using the STAR method Coming from a service\-based background and competing for top product roles wasn’t easy\. There were phases of burnout and self\-doubt\. But I kept showing up, refining my preparation strategy, closing weak areas, and building real resilience\.
