Engineering Manager|Staff Backend Engineer | 12+ Years | Distributed Systems & AI-Driven Automation I design and build high-scale, event-driven systems that power real-time applications. With over a decade of experience in the Java, Spring Boot, and Kafka ecosystem, I specialize in building reliable, scalable platforms with strong observability and performance at scale. Leading a team of 7 highly qualified Engineers. Core Expertise: • High-Scale Platforms: Architected cloud-native logistics systems (AWS/GCP) processing 250K+ transactions/day, supporting real-time workflows with high reliability • AI-Augmented Engineering: Built an Agentic AI-based Incident Commander that analyzes production exceptions, performs root-cause analysis using LLMs, and generates automated pull requests—significantly reducing MTTR and developer effort • Event-Driven Architecture: Designed distributed systems using Kafka and RabbitMQ for real-time data processing and system integrations • Performance Engineering: Strong focus on distributed tracing, database optimization, and latency reduction in high-traffic systems Strategic Impact: • Improved deployment reliability and release frequency by 40% using Kubernetes rolling updates and optimized liveness/readiness probes, enabling zero-downtime deployments and faster delivery of new features • Built observability frameworks that reduced incident noise and improved system visibility • Championed engineering excellence by driving standards for system design, CI/CD, and architectural reviews across teams Seeking Staff / Engineering Manager roles in Bengaluru,UAE, Singapore, Australia, or Remote.
