What I'm looking for

I’m looking for Engineering Manager or Sr. Principal Engineer work where I can lead backend/distributed systems, mentor teams, and ship scalable, compliant products—especially fintech and healthcare—while driving code quality and reliability.

I’m a senior backend engineer and engineering leader with 18 years of experience designing distributed systems and delivering enterprise-grade fintech and healthcare products. I architect platforms that meet strict compliance needs and scale reliably under real-world load, from RBI-compliant payment flows to high-throughput policyholder data services.

At Freecharge, I architected RBI-compliant integration layers and delivered end-to-end digital loan and card upgrade journeys, including real-time credit decisions, KYC verification, and fraud detection. I led a microservices overhaul that reduced latency by 15%, hardened production environments, and improved code quality by 35% through mentoring and standardized code reviews.

Previously at HDFC Life, I built a Customer-360 data platform and Deduplication Engine for millions of policyholders, improving accuracy by 20% and enabling a single source of truth. I’ve also delivered recommendation and onboarding systems, automation-heavy workflow platforms, and—earlier in my career—HIPAA-compliant healthcare workflows and multi-channel patient records with high concurrency and meaningful-use certifications.
