About

Backend engineer, 3+ years of experience in building distributed systems that stays consistent under load. I own search infrastructure and the partner order pipeline at PharmEasy 8M+ search queries/day, 80K+ orders/day across 6 quick-commerce integrations, 20K auth requests/minute. What I care about: correctness under concurrency, idempotent APIs, observable systems, and design decisions that still hold at 10x.
