What I'm looking for

I want a backend/systems role where I can scale microservices, reduce latency with telemetry-driven debugging, and ship reliable features. I’m excited to work in teams that value engineering rigor, strong testing, and measurable performance improvements.

I’m a MTS Intern (Backend & Systems Engineering), focused on developing and scaling backend microservices to improve throughput and system reliability under load. I diagnose bottlenecks using telemetry and logs, then optimize microservice latency while maximizing service uptime.

Alongside production systems, I research Quantum-Safe ZKP work at IIIT Bhopal. I designed a lattice-based ZKP protocol in Python, cutting verification latency by 40% for batch processing, and I built a hybrid blockchain storage model using off-chain vectors with on-chain Merkle roots to improve data retrieval by 25%.

Previously, I worked as a Research Intern at MANIT Bhopal, deploying C++ testing frameworks to validate algorithmic efficiency with 90%+ accuracy across core pathfinding services. I also streamlined telemetry analysis to reduce false positives by 35% and boost service uptime by 15%, and I’ve delivered end-to-end projects like a remote browser control pipeline (React/Node.js/WebSockets/Puppeteer) and a multi-tenant carbon ingestion & review ledger (Django/REST/rendered UI) with self-healing workflows and immutable audit trails.
