About

Software engineer building high-throughput, fault-tolerant backend and data systems for real-time financial markets. At Edelweiss Global Markets, I built Fintasker, an in-house orchestrator that replaced Airflow team-wide, running 1,000+ production pipelines across a 20-hour trading window. I own market-data ingestion across 9 global exchanges (US, Korea, Taiwan, Japan) via Kafka, and designed Cerberus, a data-quality framework that cut downstream anomalies by 75%. Previously at Bank of New York's AI Hub, I built the prompt-validation and evaluation infrastructure gating every LLM feature on the bank's internal AI platform, and shipped FastAPI-based agents that automated credit-risk document generation, cutting prep time from ~40 days to 3-5. I work primarily in Java, Python, and Spring Boot, with hands-on experience across Kafka, ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, and distributed system design. Outside work, I contribute to open source — Google Summer of Code (ELIXIR Cloud & AAI), Linux Foundation, and Code for GovTech — and I'm a B.Tech graduate from VJTI (CGPA 9.22/10). Open to backend and data engineering roles where I can work on systems at scale.
