@nayashaprakash
Backend engineer focused on Go microservices, gRPC APIs, and event-driven systems in production.
What I'm looking for
I’m a backend engineer with 1 year of experience building Go microservices, gRPC APIs, and PostgreSQL-backed applications in a production environment. I enjoy designing systems that handle real workflows reliably—especially vouchers, settlements, and communication pipelines.
In my recent role, I developed and maintained Go services for vouchers, settlements, merchant onboarding, and communication workflows. I implemented gRPC APIs, PostgreSQL schemas with GORM-based data access and migrations, and built diff-based merchant polling and synchronization to reduce redundant database updates.
I also integrated AWS SQS/SNS, Redis, and internal gRPC services for asynchronous processing, and implemented notifications across Email, SMS, and WhatsApp. Previously, I built an AI-focused Python tool using GPT-4 Turbo, and created LLM-backed PDF question answering and a JWT-secured accident injury tracker using Node.js/Express, MongoDB, React, and Redux.
