What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable platform and infrastructure for ML or backend systems, with strong engineering culture, ownership, and opportunities to improve reliability and performance.

I am a software engineer with over 4 years of experience designing and building scalable distributed systems and microservices, focused on reliability and performance. I specialize in Python, Node.js, Go, containerization with Docker, and orchestration with Kubernetes.

At Dream11 I led development of an ML Platform supporting diverse ML and data-science use cases for 100M+ users, engineered a compute service to provision large Ray clusters in under 15 minutes, and implemented autoscaling of disk volumes to raise job success rates to 99.5%.

I also automated benchmarking and developer tooling for high-throughput GraphQL workloads, and have experience building serverless workflows, mentoring teammates, and driving best practices in cloud-native environments.
