What I'm looking for

I seek backend/platform roles focusing on scalable, low-latency distributed systems, hands-on engineering, and opportunities to improve system performance and reliability while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

I'm a backend engineer with 1.5 years of hands-on experience at Vimaan, where I've shipped event-driven pipelines, owned Kafka architecture across 12+ microservices, and led end-to-end onboarding for 6 enterprise customers. Before that, I built an API gateway from scratch, a real-time infra monitoring platform, and an AI-powered root cause analysis tool, all the way from design to deployment.

My stack is Java + Python at the core, with Kafka, Redis, PostgreSQL, Neo4j, ElasticSearch, Docker, and GCP in production. I care about system design that scales, code that doesn't need a comment to explain itself, and metrics that actually move.

IIT Madras Dual Degree. I'm the kind of engineer who onboards customers, debugs production incidents, and writes the LLD doc… not just the feature ticket.

Open to backend SDE roles at startups and high-growth companies where I can own systems end-to-end, move fast, and build things that matter.
