What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own backend/API architecture and delivery—building scalable microservices and data-driven workflows that improve performance, reliability, and maintainability in a collaborative engineering environment.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience building scalable, data-driven web applications and high-performance backend systems. I design and deliver end-to-end solutions—from system design and API architecture to deployment—optimizing performance, reliability, and maintainability. I’ve built REST & GraphQL APIs, microservices, and real-time data processing systems that support complex business workflows.

At Renaissance Global Pvt. Ltd., I’ve designed scalable backend systems with FastAPI and microservices, modeled complex PostgreSQL schemas for high-volume applications, and implemented async processing and Redis caching to reduce latency. I improved API response times by up to 40% through query optimization and caching, and I deploy and manage services on AWS using Docker-based infrastructure. Previously, as a Full-Stack Developer at Dolphin Techno, I developed scalable Python (Django/FastAPI) web applications, secured APIs with authentication and rate limiting, and improved backend performance by 30–40%. My project work includes building an AI-Powered Travel Data Platform with async data pipelines and intelligent caching, plus healthcare workflow and integration platforms that emphasize workflow automation, secure role-based access, and resilient data sync (e.g., reducing sync errors by 90%).
