What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own end-to-end backend features in distributed, event-driven systems—building high-volume pipelines with NFRs, metrics, and alerts from day one, and delivering measurable improvements in reliability, performance, and iteration speed.

I’m a Software Development Engineer with 2.5 years of experience as a full-stack developer, primarily focused on backend systems, distributed architecture, and high-volume execution pipelines. I build event-driven services and internal products using Go (Golang), MongoDB, AWS, and React.js, and I own features end-to-end—from catching PRD gaps early to aligning timelines with product and stakeholders.

At Dezerv Investments, I designed gate-based quality checks that advanced the pipeline only when generated code, tests, and artifacts matched the feature spec (HLD/LDD). I built and shipped an enhanced rebalancing flow in a 3-day sprint, reducing operational turnaround time from 3 hours to 15 minutes, and I architected an event-driven internal operations portal for Rs. 500 Cr+ AUM movement with production-grade monitoring, component-level metrics, and Slack alerts planned from the start.

I also scaled the “One Model” portfolio rebalancing engine using parallel processing and queue-based fan-out execution, cutting runtime by 83.3% (1.2 hours to 15 minutes) for 5,000+ portfolios. Beyond core systems, I implemented SIP/STP forecasting to improve recommendation accuracy and built configuration-driven CI/CD pipelines to deploy and remove AWS Lambda and Step Functions across environments—while using strong observability practices to accelerate debugging and recovery.
