As a Software Engineer at Scitara Corporation, I contribute to the development of scalable, reliable backend infrastructure and high-performance file management systems. My work focuses on concurrency-safe operations, idempotent workflows, and secure communication between cloud and on-premise systems, enhancing distributed workflows. With a Master of Science in Computer Engineering from San Jose State University, I specialize in distributed systems, concurrent programming, and Docker. My goal is to combine technical expertise and a passion for scalable solutions to design efficient, fault-tolerant systems that drive innovation.

Software Engineer at Scitara Corporation, Jan 2023 - Present · 3 yrs 8 mos, Pune District, Backend engineer on Scitara's Scientific Integration Platform, connecting lab instruments, apps, and data systems for regulated (GxP) industries. I focus on concurrency, distributed workflows, and fault tolerance — reliable data flow under concurrent load. Selected work: • Deadlock-free file operations — Built a folder-operations engine (copy/move/delete/rename) using per-folder mutual exclusion with canonical global lock ordering (provably no circular waits). Verified at 128K concurrent bidirectional ops with zero deadlocks; independent directories run 7–10× faster than a single global lock. • On-prem ↔ cloud request bridge — Engineered a stateless HTTP redirect-based long-polling mechanism letting cloud services reach on-prem instruments across a firewall, holding no open connections. Each in-flight request is ~370 bytes of state, scaling to 10,000 concurrent requests in ~3.5 MB — bounded by memory, not sockets or threads. • Bridge security & resilience — Hardened the flow with single-use per-hop rotating tokens, a bounded 60-hop redirect chain, and a background sweep that reclaims orphaned state from disconnected clients — closing replay windows and preventing unbounded state growth. • Idempotency under load — Implemented a lock-free atomic claim/release (compare-and-set on a concurrent map) so a request can't be processed twice under concurrent fulfillment, without blocking on a lock. • High-throughput file handling — Scaled file-handling capacity ~100× (~10 MB → ~1 GB) via a streaming file-management service on Fastify/Node.js, for reliable transfer of large data files across services. • Agentic AI platform — Built an internal Claude Code platform codifying a 4-stage connector SDLC (create → design → implement → validate) with reusable JSON manifests. Delivered 5 GxP connectors (2 production, 3 prototypes), improved throughput ~2.5×, and cut cycle time ~60%.
