What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and teamwork, with opportunities for growth and leadership.

I'm a dedicated software developer with a strong background in large-scale systems design and technical leadership. Currently, I lead a team at Flixir Solutions, where I've successfully scaled microservices to handle over 10,000 concurrent users, achieving a remarkable 99.95% availability during peak traffic. My efforts in backend optimization have resulted in significant efficiency gains, and I've implemented CI/CD pipelines that drastically reduced deployment times.

My journey in technology began during my academic years at Sant Gajanan Maharaj College of Engineering, where I graduated with distinction. I was honored as the Best Outgoing Student and actively participated in hackathons, showcasing my commitment to continuous learning and innovation. I thrive in collaborative environments and have a passion for mentoring others, having conducted workshops for over 100 students and led multiple hackathon teams.
