@athisj
Backend/Platform Engineer specializing in multi-tenant API platforms and production ownership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Backend / Platform Engineer with 5+ years of experience building high-scale API platforms and SaaS systems, with proven ownership of multi-tenant architectures and performance-critical services (100k+ requests/day). I focus on system design, scalability, and operational excellence—using strong API design, caching strategies, and production-ready admin tooling to measurably improve latency.
My work includes AI-assisted backend automation, integrating OpenAI APIs to transform unstructured documents into structured, confidence-scored backend workflows. From owning multi-tenant logistics systems to shipping payment-enabled platforms and OAuth2-secured admin flows, I consistently lead backend development, define API contracts, and coordinate with frontend and business stakeholders to enable parallel delivery.
