About

Backend Developer at Razorpay, building scalable systems in the payments space. Computer Science graduate from Chitkara University (9.3 CGPA). I work primarily with Java (Spring Boot) and Go, designing microservices-based architectures. Hands-on with Kafka for event streaming, Kubernetes and Docker for orchestration, and Spring Security and Spring AI on the application layer. I enjoy solving complex backend problems across performance, reliability, and clean system design - and I'm always picking up new tools. Open to connecting with engineers and teams building in fintech and distributed systems.
