What I'm looking for
I am an experienced software engineer with a strong background in cloud computing and full-stack development. Throughout my career, I have achieved significant accomplishments in optimizing API performance, enhancing user experience, and implementing scalable microservices architectures. At Commvault Systems, I led a team in developing a Kafka and Redis-based alert microservice, which increased system throughput to 10,000+ alerts per second and addressed scalability and security challenges effectively. I also improved user experience by refactoring REST APIs and optimizing SQL with DB profiling, resulting in 5x faster API responses and a 10x reduction in React page load times.
In addition to my technical skills, I have a Master of Science in Computer Science from Boston University, where I focused on distributed systems, stream processing, and big data analytics. As a teaching assistant, I gained experience in Azure cloud technology, data modeling, and ETL pipelines. I am passionate about leveraging cutting-edge technologies to solve complex problems and drive innovation.
