I build enterprise software that solves real business problems. I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer and Senior Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience delivering cloud-native solutions across Financial Services, Industrial IoT, E-Commerce, and Energy. My work spans the entire journey from understanding business requirements to designing, building, deploying, and continuously improving production systems used by global enterprises. Currently at EPAM (Client: London Stock Exchange Group), I contribute to enterprise financial platforms that power portfolio management, market data, and investment workflows. Previously, I worked on cloud modernization initiatives for Ecolab, scalable backend platforms for DigiKey, and enterprise applications for Chevron. I enjoy working at the intersection of business and technology—breaking down complex problems, evaluating technical trade-offs, and delivering scalable solutions that create measurable impact. My expertise includes: • Forward Deployed Engineering • Enterprise Solution Design • Distributed Systems & Microservices • Cloud-Native Development on Microsoft Azure • .NET & C# • Event-Driven Architectures • Kubernetes, Docker & Kafka • System Design & API Architecture • AI-Assisted Engineering & Developer Productivity • Performance Optimization & Reliability Engineering I'm passionate about leveraging AI to enhance software engineering, accelerate delivery, and improve developer productivity while maintaining high standards for scalability, reliability, and maintainability. I hold an MBA in Data Analytics & Decision Science from IIT Patna, which complements my engineering background with a strong understanding of business strategy, decision-making, and data-driven problem solving. I'm always interested in connecting with engineers, architects, product leaders, and organizations building impactful enterprise software and AI-powered solutions.
