Software Engineer \| Full Stack Developer

## About

CS graduate from IIIT Hyderabad, currently a Software Engineer at Symphony Fintech Solutions, where I lead end\-to\-end backend development on systems that sit close to the markets — low\-latency exchange gateways, FIX 4\.4 acceptors on QuickFIX for NSE/BSE onboarding via the XTS platform, and the Tick\-by\-Tick infrastructure that distributes market data\. A lot of my work lives at the intersection of latency, reliability, and scale: optimizing TBT to cut hardware and broker lease line costs, migrating inter\-service communication from HTTPS to pub/sub, building API monitoring and firewall\-level security services, and squeezing \~80% better performance out of the stack during peak market volatility\. The deeper I go into this space, the more I'm pulled toward high\-frequency trading and ultra\-low\-latency systems engineering — C\+\+, lock\-free concurrency, cache\-conscious design, kernel bypass networking\. The same discipline I apply today at microsecond scales, taken down to nanoseconds\. System design is the lens I keep coming back to: how do you architect software that stays fast, correct, and observable under real market load? Most of what I've learned at Symphony has come from sitting with that exact question\. What I really love, though, is just problem solving\. The harder and more constrained the problem, the better\. Always up for a conversation about HFT, exchange infrastructure, performance engineering, or systems design\.
