I am a backend engineer with over 5 years of experience in building scalable, low-latency systems that serve millions of users. My passion lies in clean architecture and creating impactful products that prioritize user experience, even amidst backend complexities. I thrive in dynamic environments where ownership, empathy, and thoughtful engineering are essential to delivering exceptional products.

Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, such as doubling throughput for mission-critical IoT microservices at Reliance Jio and reducing API latency by 50% at Telstra. My experience includes leading code reviews, mentoring teammates, and fostering a collaborative team culture. I am dedicated to continuous improvement and leveraging technology to enhance product performance and reliability.
