About

I build distributed backend systems that handle real load β€” high QPS, multi-region deployments, and zero tolerance for downtime. πŸ’‘ Competitive Programming: LeetCode Max Rating: 1900+ | Codeforces Specialist | CodeChef 4-Star. At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, I own backend systems for Network Firewall serving enterprise customers globally. In the past two years: β†’ Cut p99 latency ~40% and throughput ~30% via database sharding and adaptive retry mechanisms (Java, OCI APIs) β†’ Improved metrics/logging pipeline latency from ~2s to ~200ms using parallel processing and safe concurrency β†’ Eliminated 20–30 Sev-2 production incidents annually by identifying and fixing systemic architectural bottlenecks β†’ Led zero-downtime OS migrations and large-scale data backfills in live production environments β†’ Reduced a 14-day security update cycle to ~24 hours through automated pipeline design I work across the full backend lifecycle β€” system design, REST API development, observability (Prometheus, Grafana), incident response, and production rollouts. Tech stack: Java, Python, Golang, Spring Boot, C++ , Terraform, Kubernetes , Docker , Redis , Kafka , MySQL, OCI cloud APIs I care about systems that hold up under pressure and degrade gracefully when they don't. Open to backend infrastructure, and distributed systems roles where scale is a first-class concern.
