Senior Software Engineer @ CRED | Platform Engineering • Distributed Systems • AI Agents • Backend Systems

About

I'm a backend and platform engineer who enjoys building systems that other engineers and businesses can build upon. Over the past 5+ years, I've worked across fintech and insurance, designing distributed systems, reusable backend platforms, and event-driven architectures that operate at production scale. At CRED, I've built platforms from the ground up, including: - A configuration-driven insurer integration platform processing 1.5M+ quote requests/day. - A real-time assistance platform that processes millions of events to orchestrate contextual customer journeys across multiple channels. Beyond product development, I care deeply about engineering excellence—reliability, observability, platform abstractions, developer productivity, and operational simplicity. More recently, I've been exploring AI-native software engineering. I use Claude Code extensively in day-to-day development and have built engineering agents for production debugging, incident triage, code review, testing, documentation, knowledge retrieval, and on-call assistance using LLMs and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Areas I'm most interested in: - Distributed Systems - Platform Engineering - Event-Driven Architectures - AI-Native Engineering - Developer Tooling - Reliability Engineering Always happy to connect with engineers who enjoy solving large-scale backend and platform problems.
