I build reliable backend systems and lead engineering teams.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to own reliable backend systems end to end, lead and mentor engineers, and build scalable products in a team that values strong engineering practices and production impact.

At iRecharge Tech Innovations, I lead seven engineers and migrated 200,000+ users to a new system with zero downtime. I improved transaction throughput by 43%, reduced data-mismatch incidents by 60%, and built reusable workflow infrastructure across three projects.

I've built backend systems for fintech, payments, real-time chat, and creator monetization products using TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, AWS, and event-driven architecture. I enjoy owning systems end to end, from design and delivery through production support, while mentoring engineers to write reliable and secure code.
