Senior software engineer building secure multi-tenant, event-driven backend platforms at scale.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer architecting backend platforms for India’s Account Aggregator ecosystem, focused on multi-tenant reliability, security, and operational visibility. I led the migration from dedicated per-client deployments to a centralized multi-tenant architecture, using PostgreSQL Row-Level Security (RLS) and tenant-aware request processing to keep isolation strong.
Previously, I built scalable backend microservices to support AI-driven personalization and video training workflows, and I automated pre-training video validations to eliminate manual review. I also engineered a payments service integrating Paytm and PhonePe with idempotent callbacks and event-driven status checks, while delivering DPDP Act-aligned microservices for consent, authorization, and verification.
