SDE-2 @SaaS Labs | Backend Engineer | Distributed Systems & Data Infra | Node.js, Kubernetes, ClickHouse | Building fault-tolerant systems at scale

About

Backend engineer (SDE-II) with 3+ years building distributed systems that handle hundreds of thousands of daily transactions in production. I specialize in the hard parts of scale: data consistency, real-time sync, and system reliability under load. Recent work includes rebuilding our on-call platform on CQRS architecture (cutting request fan-out and P99 latency significantly), building a fault-tolerant MySQL-to-ClickHouse sync pipeline running at 99.99% consistency, and shipping an abuse-detection system that cut infra costs by ~$5K/month. Core stack: Node.js (NestJS), MySQL, ClickHouse, Kubernetes, Google Pub/Sub, BullMQ, GCP. I care about ownership — from system design through on-call — and enjoy mentoring engineers on writing code that's built to survive production, not just pass review.
