Senior backend engineer specializing in AWS serverless, event-driven GraphQL APIs, and AI tooling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a backend engineer specializing in serverless architectures and event-driven systems on AWS. I’ve spent 4+ years delivering production GraphQL APIs and Node.js services at Deloitte (HashedIn) and Capgemini, and I’m currently building AI-integrated backend tooling.
At HashedIn by Deloitte, I designed and owned backend workflows where Salesforce-triggered events drove AWS Lambda async processing for trade certification pipelines, including DLQ-based error recovery and CloudWatch observability. I built serverless services with Node.js, Lambda, and GraphQL for live traffic—handling orchestration, input validation, and structured error handling across distributed components.
I also focus heavily on performance and reliability: I reduced P95 query latency by ~60% using schema normalization, partitioning, and index optimization, and I diagnosed Lambda cold-start cascades plus DB connection pool exhaustion with CloudWatch logs and runbooks. Earlier, at Capgemini and DesignBytes, I shipped backend APIs and caching/performance improvements (e.g., Redis reducing DB round-trips ~40% and faster wallet queries) while partnering cross-functionally on frontend/auth experiences for product teams.

Full Stack Developer
DesignBytes
Feb 2024 - Jun 2024 (4 months)
Built RESTful Node.js APIs for an admin platform monitoring real-time power plant operations, including alerting endpoints and role-filtered access. Shipped React dashboards (Tailwind, Shadcn, Chart.js) and improved load time from 6.2s → 4.3s while implementing JWT + Google OAuth with RBAC and session invalidation.
Developed Node.js/Express.js backend services for scheduling and wallet applications, improving transaction consistency, job queuing, and multi-tenant data isolation. Added Redis caching to reduce DB round-trips ~40% and lowered wallet query latency from 180ms → 110ms, while resolving memory leaks and performance bottlenecks via profiling.
