About

As a Software Engineer at Lowe’s India, I contribute to designing and building high-performing, scalable distributed systems and event-driven microservices. My work includes developing Kafka-based microservices processing significant daily data volumes and optimizing database queries to enhance performance metrics, such as reducing PostgreSQL query latency by 30%. I also specialize in building robust ETL pipelines and containerized testing frameworks to improve system reliability and efficiency. Graduating with a BTech in Computer Science from Graphic Era Deemed to be University in 2021, I bring expertise in distributed systems, cloud computing, and microservices. Proficient in Java, Go, Kafka, and PostgreSQL, I aim to leverage my technical acumen and collaborative approach to empower teams and drive impactful solutions in backend engineering.
