Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

As a Software Development Engineer, I have successfully worked on improving the latency of amazon’s detail page, by lazy loading out-of-viewport images and ran AB testing for the same. I also worked in the platform team to develop features for a new microservice based architecture(using AWS serverless computing) that would be replacing the current architecture within Amazon. The work here involved end to end development of new features for the new architecture and also identifying old features in previous architecture which can be migrated to new service. Tech stack for the projects was Java and Spring Boot Framework and also using AWS services.

In this tenure of my career, I have successfully worked on creating an end-to-end tool that automated the process of dashboard creation which previously used to take up to 1 SDE day, and now takes 2-3 minutes. The tech stack for the tool involved working with AngularJS, DynamoDB, and Django for creating this web app.
