Message

At Belden India Pvt Ltd, I owned the Python-to-Go rewrite of a service for the EdgeService Gateway, from design through production deployment. It reduced Docker image size by 31% and API latency by 80% for on-premises deployments.

At Kodnest Technologies, I architected and operated Golang microservices on Kubernetes, including migrating services to AWS EKS and setting up autoscaling and health-check standards. I also improved MongoDB performance and moved services to asynchronous messaging; in my ongoing projects, I’m building Go tools for media downloads, code compilation, and notifications.
