What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend engineering role where I can build scalable APIs, design reliable microservices, and work with technologies like Go, Python, gRPC, and PostgreSQL to solve complex system challenges and improve performance.

I am an aspiring backend engineer with a strong focus on designing and building distributed systems, REST/gRPC APIs, and real-time applications. I’ve worked as a Backend Engineering Intern at Appzen, where I developed scalable Go microservices, led a data platform migration to PostgreSQL that boosted query performance by 40%, and built Grafana-based observability dashboards that reduced remediation time by 25%.

My projects include a low-latency trading engine in C++ with WebSocket-driven real-time updates, a production-ready forum backend with JWT-based authentication, and an award-winning AI surveillance system using YOLOv8 and CNNs. As Technical Team Head at ACM-W, I’ve led automation initiatives and organized AI-focused sessions, blending leadership with engineering.

I’m passionate about backend development, system design, and AI-driven automation, and I aim to contribute to high-impact teams building reliable and scalable solutions that solve real-world problems.
