## Headline

Software engineer @Backspace Tech \| Ex\-Freshworks

## About

Full Stack Developer with 2\+ years of experience at Freshworks, specializing in backend API development, AI Agent integration, and test automation\. At Freshworks, I built production\-grade systems including a channel\-aware LLM pipeline for Freddy AI that dynamically tailored responses across Instagram, WhatsApp, and web channels for enterprise global customers\. I also delivered an org\-wide release dashboard that cut manual tracking time from 15 minutes to 2 minutes, migrated 100\+ flaky test cases from Testim to Playwright reducing regression time from 3 days to 4 hours, and resolved 150\+ production incidents while maintaining 99% SLA compliance\. I work across the full stack — Java, Spring Boot, React\.js, Node\.js — with hands\-on experience contributing to RAG\-based AI products and multi\-channel microservice architectures\. I also actively use AI\-assisted development tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude to ship faster in production\. Currently open to Full Stack and Backend Engineer roles at product companies and startups\. Feel free to reach out at thesasi\.dev@gmail\.com
