What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead architecture for resilient, low-latency serverless platforms—delivering sub-30ms APIs, strong NFRs, cost governance, and mentoring teams to engineering excellence.

I’m a technical architect and backend engineer with deep expertise in serverless AWS, OTT/media pipelines, and high-performance APIs. I deliver resilient systems (<30ms p95, months of zero downtime), optimize cost with managed services, and mentor teams to engineering excellence.

My work consistently targets strong NFRs: I’ve designed independent APIs meeting sub-30ms p95, built for zero downtime using blue/green deploys and proactive observability, and scaled media ingestion with template-driven AWS Elemental MediaConvert pipelines.

At KVell Dynamics, I architected large-scale IoT ingestion and near real-time streaming pipelines, including idempotent writes and secure provisioning, plus analytics and alerting for KPIs. Previously at Planet Marathi Group, I led an end-to-end OTT platform built on AWS serverless, implemented in-house OIDC/OAuth 2.0, integrated multiple vendor services, and improved cost posture through consolidation and right-sizing.
