Bengaluru

Co-architected a pnpm + Turborepo monorepo with 15 independently deployable services (14 TypeScript/Express, 1 Python/FastAPI). Stabilized Kafka-based event infrastructure (Aiven, SASL SCRAM-SHA-256 over SSL) powering 4 critical consumer groups for discovery and engagement loops. Resolved a production consumer-eviction issue and reduced projected LLM/API waste by 30-50x via timeout tuning and in-memory deduplication. Built hybrid feed ranking with dense retrieval, Thompson Sampling contextual bandits, and Gemini reranking with live reward updates.
