## About

Software Development Engineer at Meesho, building large\-scale backend systems that power affiliate commerce\. My work revolves around designing low\-latency distributed systems, event\-driven architectures, scalable APIs, data pipelines, observability\.\. I enjoy solving engineering problems where performance, reliability, and scalability matter\. I primarily work with Java, Spring Boot, MySQL, Redis, Kafka and cloud\-native technologies, while also building full\-stack applications using React and Next\.js\. I'm particularly interested in system design, distributed systems, backend architecture, and developer productivity\. Beyond product development, I enjoy leveraging AI to improve engineering workflows\.\. from automating operational tasks and generating observability insights to building developer tools that reduce manual effort\. Before Meesho, I externed at AlgoUniversity \(backed by Y Combinator\), where I built an end\-to\-end online coding platform featuring secure code execution for four major programming languages, automated testcase evaluation, concurrency\-controlled submissions, real\-time leaderboards, and an AI\-powered coding assistant\. I also worked on a patented research project in formal verification and multi\-agent systems during my undergraduate studies at NIT Calicut\. Outside work, you'll usually find me learning about distributed systems, databases, cloud infrastructure, open\-source technologies, and the latest advancements in AI\. Or occasionally finding bugs on X \(formerly Twitter\)\. If that's your thing too, hit me up @pranavprashantt :\) Always happy to connect with engineers, builders, and people who enjoy solving challenging problems\.
