What I'm looking for
I am a Backend Engineer with 2+ years of experience in building scalable backend systems and distributed applications. I completed my MCA from MNNIT Allahabad and have worked extensively with Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, TypeScript, Kafka, Redis, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and microservices architecture.
In my current role, I work on designing REST APIs, event-driven systems, and high-throughput backend pipelines for production-grade applications. I’ve also contributed to performance optimization, distributed processing, and AI-driven workflows involving semantic search and LLM integrations.
I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, building scalable systems, and continuously learning new technologies in backend engineering, cloud, and AI. Alongside development, I regularly practice data structures and algorithms and have solved 800+ coding problems to strengthen my problem-solving skills.
