I build high-throughput distributed systems for fintech, blockchain, and data platforms.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Fireplace, I shipped a real-time prediction market terminal from 0→1, building portfolio tracking, order management, live market analytics, and a low-latency TypeScript backend.
I’ve also built Rust and ClickHouse indexing pipelines for live blockchain transactions, powering position tracking, wallet-level PnL, search, and leaderboards. At TRM Labs, I operated petabyte-scale GCP ingestion processing 10,000+ events per second and helped unlock approximately $2M in enterprise revenue.
Earlier, I led data teams at Zluri and Postman, scaling data platforms, integrations, governance, and multi-tenant lakehouse systems. I deliberately moved from engineering management back to hands-on IC work because I do my best work owning hard systems end to end.
