Backend Architect \| Engineering Leader \| 14\+ yrs in AI, Java, Cloud, Distributed Systems, Fintech & Gaming

## About

14\+ years in software, most of it spent making sure things don’t break when they matter\. Payments go through, fraud gets caught, and data moves fast\. I currently work as an Architect and Engineering Leader at Scapia\. Most of my work has been around backend systems that operate under real pressure\. Payments, risk systems, fraud detection, and real\-time pipelines\. The kind of systems where failure is visible immediately\. I’ve worked extensively with Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, Redis, AWS, and Kubernetes to build systems that are reliable, low latency, and cost conscious\. This has included handling peak loads of around 60 million events per minute during high traffic periods like IPL, and driving fraud reduction initiatives that led to an 80 percent drop in fraudulent activity at Games24x7\. Over the last year, I’ve also been working on AI use cases alongside these systems\. This includes GenAI, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, evaluation frameworks, and fine tuning smaller models\. One example was building and launching a customer facing support chatbot from a quick POC to production within a month, making it a core part of the support experience\. A big part of this work has been separating what looks good in demos from what holds up in production, and making sure these systems integrate cleanly with existing platforms\. I enjoy working where new ideas meet real constraints\. A lot of the job is making trade offs between speed, reliability, accuracy, and cost, and getting to something that works well in the real world\. I also spend time mentoring engineers and working with teams on scaling systems, improving resilience, and making better architectural decisions over time\. Still learning, still curious, and currently exploring how AI native systems and agentic workflows will evolve alongside traditional backend architectures\.
