Koushan De
@koushande
Passionate back-end engineer focused on secure, high-performance systems and scalable services.
What I'm looking for
I am a back-end engineer with strong experience building scalable microservices, optimizing performance, and implementing secure systems using Go, Java (Spring Boot), Ruby and related technologies. I've delivered high-impact services at scale—designing reward platforms, integrating payments/UPI flows, and improving latency and observability across systems.
I take a pragmatic, security-first approach: I built encryption/decryption and password-protected ZIP workflows, introduced PII-safe structured logging, and added Redis caching to reduce API latency from 300ms to 70ms. I enjoy solving hard reliability and performance problems and using automation and AI tools to accelerate delivery while maintaining high code quality.
