Backend engineer building high-scale consumer systems and leading teams to ship products.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Backend engineer with 5+ years at Urban Company, specializing in high-scale consumer systems like homescreen, booking, checkout, experimentation, and discounts. I’ve led cross-functional teams of engineers and shipped features used by millions of users.
At Urban Company, I architected and led the multibooking flow, driving 14% of requests in a live category. I also led an LLM-powered pipeline integrating demand forecasting, calendar APIs, and trending signals to auto-generate event page content and push notifications.
I’ve continued to deliver measurable outcomes across the stack—revamping homescreen by automating curation pages with a team of 3, creating Quick Rebook to improve repeat bookings, re-architecting orchestration back-end for multi-category checkout, and launching Book for Others (9% of total bookings). I built stateful experimentation systems for pollution-free A/B testing and made UC Credits and Coupon services resilient and fault tolerant to prevent fraudulent transactions.
