Backend software engineer leading cloud-native, event-driven systems for regulated healthcare and SaaS.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a backend engineer with 4.5+ years across healthcare and document-management SaaS for the Australian and European markets. I started by building product features, then moved into owning production systems—especially when complex government healthcare integrations demanded careful boundary design and reliable execution.
Now I lead backend delivery for a small team, focused on getting cloud-native, event-driven services into production and keeping them running. I’ve driven major backend reliability and performance improvements, including a monolith-to-microservices migration, an event-driven Azure Service Bus pipeline that increased compression throughput 2.5x, and Kubernetes-based deployments with a 99.9% uptime SLA.
