What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend-focused role where I can own architecture and platform engineering, build high-performance data systems, and raise engineering quality through strong testing and CI—ideally with Rust/Python/TypeScript and real production scale.

I’m a senior backend engineer with 11+ years building high-performance, data-intensive systems across Rust, Python, and TypeScript. I focus on turning complex data and platform needs into fast, reliable services—especially where performance, correctness, and operational stability matter.

Most recently, as a Principal Engineer at Shimrix Technologies (supply chain software and IoT startup in India), I own architecture, infrastructure, and platform engineering, contributing across the C# backend and TypeScript frontend. Previously at Vividly (US-based CPG SaaS), I built a high-performance Rust analytics service, led a terabyte-scale database migration, and established the company’s end-to-end Playwright testing platform.

I also enjoy engineering leadership that compounds impact: I’ve mentored teams, improved developer experience, and drove migrations that reduced build and response times. From zero-downtime Firebase-to-PostgreSQL migration to Webpack-to-Vite upgrades, I’ve consistently prioritized scalability, maintainability, and developer velocity.
