About

I'm a backend engineer who specializes in distributed platform systems, event-driven architectures, and high-performance microservices. I've architected and shipped fault-tolerant systems handling 50+ requests/second at sub-5ms P95 latency—validated under load testing. WHAT I'VE BUILT → Hybrid recommendation engine with Kafka event pipelines, Redis caching, and ML-integrated backend (Spring Boot + FastAPI) • Reduced latency by ~95% with Redis per-user caching • Achieved zero-downtime with fault-tolerant fallback architecture • Real-time behavioral signal processing via Kafka → RBAC-secured supply chain tracking system (Team Lead, 6 engineers) • Delivered MVP 1 week ahead with zero critical defects • 90%+ JUnit test coverage across modular services • SQL query optimization via indexing strategies → Production systems engineering at Capgemini • Root cause analysis and incident resolution for enterprise workflows • Data consistency under concurrent multi-entity transaction loads • Microservices-aligned architecture contributions TECHNICAL FOCUS Backend: Spring Boot, FastAPI, REST APIs, Microservices Distributed Systems: Apache Kafka, Redis, Event-driven Architecture, Fault Tolerance Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB Cloud & DevOps: AWS (EC2/S3/RDS), Docker, JMeter Testing: JUnit (90%+ coverage), Load Testing, TDD ML Integration: Collaborative filtering, TF-IDF, scikit-learn WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR I'm seeking backend engineering roles at product-focused startups where I can: - Build scalable distributed systems from the ground up - Own backend architecture decisions - Ship features users actually care about - Work with Kafka, Redis, PostgreSQL, and modern backend stacks If you're building something interesting and need someone who thinks in systems, trade-offs, and performance metrics—let's talk. 📧 khushi2014g@gmail.com
