What I'm looking for
I am a Backend Engineer with over two years of experience specializing in high-throughput API development. My journey has been marked by a passion for optimizing performance and enhancing scalability, particularly in cloud environments. At Dhiway, I have successfully enhanced backend systems for various platforms, achieving significant improvements in API throughput and latency.
One of my notable achievements includes re-architecting a monolithic application into a microservices ecosystem, which not only improved maintainability but also allowed for better scalability. I have also led projects that involved integrating advanced technologies like AWS Lambda and Redis caching, ensuring that our systems can handle millions of requests with minimal downtime. My commitment to open-source technologies has driven me to mentor contributors and support community projects, further enriching my professional experience.
