About

Hi there! I’m a passionate Software Engineer with experience in building scalable, high-performance systems that deliver seamless user experiences. Currently working as a Senior Software Engineer at Razorpay, where I contribute to building the backbone of India’s leading fintech ecosystem. Previously at PineLabs, I designed and optimized APIs for the core payment gateway, driving innovations like EMI with instant cashback and instant subvention features. I bring hands-on experience with Java, Kotlin, Python, Spring Boot, Kafka, Redis, React.js, and observability tools like Grafana and JMeter. I follow TDD using JUnit, and I'm passionate about writing clean, maintainable code. With an MTech from IIT Kanpur and a strong belief in cross-functional collaboration, I’m driven to turn ambitious ideas into reliable, real-world solutions. What excites me? Crafting robust, thoughtful systems that scale beautifully and leave an impact.Let’s connect and create something meaningful together! For Referrals use this link https://grnh.se/dntcnzq05us
