About

Full-Stack Engineer with 3+ years of experience building scalable systems using React, Next.js, and Node.js. Currently working on reusable backend architecture (authentication, RBAC), system design, and infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD). Previously led a production system rewrite reducing crashes by 70% and improving performance by up to 60%. Looking for opportunities in Bengaluru or remote roles where I can contribute to building scalable systems.

Work experience

Software Engineer at Xlorit, Mar 2026 - Present · 3 mos, Remote, Architected and built reusable backend infrastructure including Authentication (OAuth, JWT) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), transforming repeated one-off implementations into standardized, production-ready modules Reduced development time across projects significantly by introducing a reusable backend template and shared service layer, enabling faster project bootstrapping and consistent architecture Designed and developed scalable REST APIs with clean architecture principles, ensuring maintainability, extensibility, and performance under production workloads Led backend design decisions by evaluating trade-offs between monolithic and microservices architectures based on cost, scalability, and operational complexity Owned authentication and security flows end-to-end, including third-party OAuth integrations (Google, Apple), token lifecycle management, and secure API access patterns Collaborated cross-functionally with frontend and mobile teams to define robust API contracts, reducing integration issues and improving delivery speed Improved engineering efficiency and code quality by establishing structured Git workflows (feature-based branching, PR per ticket, code reviews), increasing team alignment and reducing bugs Set up and managed deployment infrastructure, including Docker-based containerization and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, enabling reliable and repeatable deployments Contributed to internal developer tooling and platform initiatives, focusing on building systems that scale across teams rather than isolated feature development

Full Stack Developer at Self-Employed, Feb 2022 - Present · 4 yrs 4 mos, Building modern web applications with a focus on clean architecture, performance, and user experience. I work primarily with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Node.js, developing both frontend interfaces and backend APIs. My work involves building scalable UI systems, integrating REST APIs, designing database schemas, and shipping features end-to-end. I enjoy solving real product problems, improving application performance, and turning ideas into reliable software. I’m constantly exploring better ways to build systems — from frontend performance optimization to backend architecture and cloud deployments. Always building. Always learning.
