About

I'm a Backend Software Engineer at JioTV+ with nearly 3 years of experience working on large-scale OTT systems. My core strength is Go and microservice-based backend development, but what I enjoy most is solving the engineering problems behind the code — understanding access patterns, making the right architectural trade-offs, finding bottlenecks, and building systems that behave reliably in production. I've worked across different parts of the backend stack, from APIs and data systems to asynchronous processing, caching, cloud infrastructure, and production operations. I enjoy taking ownership of a problem end-to-end and understanding how the pieces of a distributed system work together. I'm currently exploring AI-native software development and how AI can become part of the engineering workflow through skills, agents, project context, and MCP integrations. B.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering from NIT Goa | CGPA: 9.31 I build backend systems where scale, perfomance, and reliability matter. I'm looking for opportunities where I can work on larger-scale backend and distributed systems, grow deeper in system design, and take ownership of challenging engineering problems.
