Software Engineer @ Nutanix | Distributed Systems | C++ | Java | Backend Systems

About

I am a backend-focused Software Engineer who enjoys building scalable, real-world systems that operate under performance, reliability, and correctness constraints. My experience centers around Java (11/17), Spring Boot, microservices, PostgreSQL, Redis, and event-driven architectures (Kafka / ActiveMQ), with hands-on exposure to low-latency payments, onboarding platforms, and real-time distributed systems in FinTech and large-scale enterprise environments. I have worked on systems where milliseconds matter, traffic is unpredictable, and failures must be handled gracefully. Beyond implementation, I care deeply about system design, performance optimization, and ownership - from understanding business constraints to shipping production-grade solutions. I am comfortable working in ambiguous problem spaces, building from scratch, and iterating quickly with a strong product mindset. I am particularly interested in backend, platform, or infrastructure-heavy roles (SDE I / SDE II) where the focus is on core services, scalability, and system correctness rather than surface-level features. If you are hiring for teams building high-impact backend systems, distributed platforms, or large-scale products, I would be happy to connect and explore how I can contribute.
