Engineering @ Cashfree Payments · Fintech Backend · REST APIs · Payments Infrastructure

## About

As an Engineer at Cashfree Payments — one of India's leading payment gateway companies\. I work at the intersection of backend engineering and fintech: connecting merchant systems to payment rails, debugging integration failures at scale\. I graduated with a BE in Computer Science from JSS Science and Technology University, where I spent three years building a strong foundation in data structures, algorithms, databases, and full\-stack development\. But the real learning happened when I joined Cashfree as an intern in January 2025 and had to ship production\-grade integrations from day one\. What I bring to the table: → Backend development Spring Boot and REST APIs → Database work across PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL → Payments domain expertise — payment gateways, fintech workflows → Observability tooling: Elasticsearch, Kibana, MetaBase → Strong CS fundamentals: OOP, algorithms, data structures I'm early in my career but not early in my thinking\. I take ownership, ship fast, and care deeply about systems that work reliably under pressure\. Currently open to backend engineering roles where I can grow into distributed systems, API architecture, or fintech infrastructure\. Let's connect — whether you're hiring, building, or just want to talk backend\.
