Backend Engineer | Building distributed systems with Node.js, Kafka & Docker | Final-year CS @ SRM AP

About

Final-year CS undergraduate focused on backend engineering and distributed systems. I build things end-to-end — from async data pipelines processing multiple concurrent API sources, to a Docker-based deployment platform that streams live build logs through Kafka and ClickHouse, to serverless monitoring tools running on Cloudflare Workers. Recent work: • Built an async data ingestion engine (FastAPI + httpx + asyncio) that dedupes job listings across ATS sources using SHA-256 content hashing • Built a distributed deployment engine where isolated Docker containers stream build output in real time via Kafka → ClickHouse → WebSockets • Built a Chrome extension + Cloudflare Worker downtime monitor that cut KV writes by 90% through smarter change-detection logic Co-authored a research paper on blockchain-based land registration using Merkle-tree versioning. Comfortable across Python, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Docker, AWS, and Kafka. Open to backend/full-stack roles where I can work on systems that need to scale.
