I am a Platform Engineer with nearly 10 years of experience building cloud-native, event-driven, and highly scalable backend systems across B2B SaaS, fintech, and real-time communication platforms. I specialize in AWS infrastructure, distributed systems, queuing technologies, and high-availability platform engineering. At Chargebee, I manage and operate several mission-critical eventing modules that process millions of events per day. I independently own systems like audit pipelines, distributed event queues, and webhook delivery frameworks, architected entirely on AWS using SQS, SNS, DynamoDB, Lambda, EC2, ECS, RDS, CloudFormation, and automated CI/CD processes. I am also a primary engineer for deep production debugging, handling issues such as race conditions, queue delays, scaling bottlenecks, and high-load failures. When there is a production issue, I am always available — reliability matters more than time-bound work culture. Before Chargebee, I worked with Kadel Labs, delivering WebRTC, Jitsi, and telephony solutions for US-based clients, and contributed to backend and financial modules for Novopay. This experience strengthened my foundations in distributed media systems, signaling protocols, and real-time communication platforms. I also founded Yoro, where I managed technology, product development, operations, hiring, and overall execution. Leading a startup gave me a strong ownership mindset, the ability to build systems from zero, and the confidence to handle engineering, product, and operations simultaneously. My core strengths include: • Event-Driven Architecture & Queuing Systems — high-throughput pipelines, retries, DLQs, ordering guarantees • AWS Expertise — EC2, ECS, DynamoDB, RDS/MySQL, IAM, VPC, CloudFormation • Backend Engineering — Java/Spring Boot, microservices, distributed system design • Observability & Reliability — tracing, logging, monitoring, alerting, incident response • Real-time Communication — WebRTC, Jitsi, telephony stacks (Kadel Labs) • AI-Enabled, Automation-First Work Style — “AI-lazy developer” mindset: automate everything • Entrepreneurial Execution — built, scaled, and operated products end-to-end at Yoro I combine platform engineering depth, strong production instincts, and startup-level ownership. I thrive in environments where scale, reliability, and long-term architecture matter.
