About

Staff-oriented Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience architecting and scaling distributed, cloud-native platforms. I hold an M.Tech in Software Engineering from BITS Pilani and specialize in microservices architecture, event-driven systems, and high-performance backend platforms that support enterprise-scale workloads. My experience spans building resilient distributed systems, modernizing large-scale applications, and enabling secure cloud integrations. I have led initiatives that improved system performance, accelerated engineering delivery through automation, and strengthened operational reliability across globally used platforms. Beyond individual contributions, I focus on technical leadership and organizational impact — mentoring engineers, leading architecture discussions, driving modernization programs, and establishing engineering best practices that scale across teams. I enjoy solving complex system design problems and building platforms that improve developer productivity, system resilience, and long-term scalability. Key Areas of Interest: Distributed Systems • Cloud-Native Platforms • Microservices Architecture • Platform Engineering • Performance Optimization • Developer Productivity • Team Leadership
