I am a Backend Software Engineer passionate about designing distributed systems that are scalable, resilient, and easy to operate. My experience spans backend architecture, distributed messaging, database engineering, performance engineering, and building reliable production systems using Java. Some of the engineering problems I've worked on include: • Building and scaling backend services for high-volume production workloads • Leading zero-downtime database migrations (HBase → MongoDB, MapDB → Aerospike) • Building centralized analytics infrastructure from scratch • Debugging and optimizing production Kafka systems through concurrency improvements, consumer reliability, and throughput tuning • Improving backend concurrency and throughput using Java Virtual Threads and modern JVM features • Serving as the SME for the billing platform, including identifying a production issue that recovered more than ₹10 lakh in business impact Beyond implementation, I enjoy owning backend platforms end-to-end—from architecture and performance tuning to production debugging, reliability improvements, and long-term maintenance. My core technologies include Java, Kafka, Aerospike, MongoDB, Spring Boot, Quarkus, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS. I enjoy solving complex engineering challenges around distributed systems, scalability, performance, and reliability by building simple, resilient, and high-performing backend platforms.
