I build the backend layer that doesn't break under pressure. Building distributed systems that handle telecom-scale workloads — 10M+ events/day, 250GB/day ETL pipelines, 50ms p95 latency at production. My work spans high-throughput microservices, Kafka-based event pipelines, Kubernetes deployments, and SLO-driven observability — all battle-tested on Tier-1 telecom infrastructure. I own things end-to-end: from API design and database tuning to CI/CD automation and cost optimization ($15K/month saved via ClickHouse migration). What makes me different right now: I'm at the Backend × GenAI intersection — building agentic AI workflows, integrating LLM APIs into existing microservice architectures, and designing backend infrastructure for RAG pipelines and multi-agent orchestration using Spring AI, LangChain4j, and MCP. As companies go AI-native, I'm building the reliable backend layer those systems run on.

Software Engineer 2 at WEX, Sep 2026 - Present · 1 mo, Bengaluru
Software Engineer at Mobileum, Aug 2025 - Present · 1 yr 1 mo, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India · Hybrid, • Owned backend services for routing/configuration workflows (tens of millions of events/day); improved production readiness via SLO monitoring, safe rollouts, and incident playbooks. • Optimized Couchbase upsert-heavy APIs by reducing DB round-trips and tuning N1QL queries/indexes; achieved ~50ms typical latency under JMeter load. • Reduced Oracle load and improved tail latency via query/index tuning, batching, and connection-pool right-sizing; validated via before/after baselines and JVM triage (e.g., jstack during spikes). • Hardened customer-facing endpoints using AWS API Gateway + WAF (throttling/filtering) with consistent error contracts; documented via Swagger/OpenAPI to speed integrations. • Built CI/CD with Jenkins + Maven to publish container images and deploy to Kubernetes/OpenShift using Helm (rolling/canary + rollback checks), reducing deployment incidents.
Associate Software Engineer at Mobileum, Aug 2023 - Aug 2025 · 2 yrs 1 mo, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India · Hybrid, • Built ETL pipelines ingesting and aggregating ~250GB/day of telecom logs (~1M logs/min avg) for customer reporting and operational analytics. • Improved analytical performance by shifting workloads from Postgres to ClickHouse/Hive; delivered 3–5× faster queries and more predictable reporting SLAs. • Increased ingestion throughput by optimizing Postgres writes (UPSERT, small-batch inserts), using temp tables for aggregation, and tuning Postgres parameters. • Reduced end-to-end ETL latency by introducing Kafka-based streaming stages using consumer groups, controlled retries + DLQ, and idempotent upserts (at-least-once processing).
Software Engineer Intern at Barclays, Mar 2023 - Aug 2023 · 6 mos, Bengaluru, • Developed Java backend components for an internal workflow engine with testable business rules and fault-tolerant execution patterns (timeouts/retries). • Improved relational query performance via indexing and query tuning; validated via repeatable benchmarks. • Containerized services using Docker and improved build reproducibility via CI packaging.
