@aakashmaurya
Software engineering leader specializing in cloud-native systems, reliability, and scalable architectures.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a software engineering leader with 9+ years building high-scale cloud-native systems, modernizing legacy platforms into resilient microservices, and aligning engineering work with business priorities.
I have led cross-functional teams to deliver high-throughput systems — modernizing monoliths to microservices, architecting Kafka-based syncs for millions of records, and building observability and CI/CD practices that dramatically reduced failures and rollout times.
I mentor engineers on TDD and contract testing, simplify architectures for long-term maintainability, and drive measurable outcomes such as 90% fewer API failures, sub-minute CI/CD rollouts, and improved system reliability during peak traffic.
