Seeking a dynamic workplace fostering innovation and collaboration. I aim to join enthusiastic teams using cutting-edge technologies, where continuous learning and work-life balance thrive. My goal is to contribute meaningfully while expanding expertise through hands-on experience, in a culture valuing both technological advancement and personal growth.

Hello, I'm Babu Somasundaram, a seasoned Software Architect and Backend Developer with over 14 years of experience in the tech industry. My expertise lies in building scalable API solutions, leveraging cloud technologies, and integrating AI/ML innovations into practical applications.

Throughout my career, I've worn many hats – from co-founding a startup that raised $3.6 million in funding to leading development teams in creating high-impact products. As a CTO, I've successfully launched mobile apps that garnered excellent user ratings and significant user bases. My technical skills span Python, Django, FastAPI, AWS, and GCP, among others.

My approach combines deep technical knowledge with a keen understanding of business needs. I excel at translating complex requirements into effective, scalable solutions. Whether it's developing robust backends, architecting cloud systems, or exploring the frontiers of AI, I'm always eager to take on new challenges and push the boundaries of what's possible in tech.
