Backend Engineer experienced in building and scaling distributed microservices for 30M+ users, focused on reliability, performance, and growth.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a software engineer with 2+ years of experience building high-throughput, real-time backend systems at Dream11. I architect distributed microservices that support 30M+ MAU and optimize low-latency data flows as user growth accelerates.
At Dream11, I built a real-time interactive engagement platform on AWS using distributed microservices, supporting 5M+ DAU and 30M+ MAU. I also scaled backend services to 840K+ RPM, using structured logging, distributed tracing, and observability via Amazon CloudWatch to maintain high reliability.
I focus heavily on performance and correctness in production systems—like building a high-concurrency distributed waitlist with Redis and Lua, handling 7.5K RPS with sub-10ms latency. I implemented event-driven consumers for room synchronization and participant metrics sync to AWS AppSync.
Earlier, I interned as a Full Stack Developer, engineering a shipment data platform with React.js and Spring Boot to improve operational efficiency. I’ve also worked on data-driven and ML projects—developing an adaptive testing model with Python and building a deep learning segmentation pipeline using U-Net—so I bring a practical, systems-first mindset to every problem.
