Yavnesh Sharma

I am a Senior Backend Engineer with 8+ years of experience building scalable backend systems, distributed architectures, and production-grade SaaS applications. Throughout my career, I have enjoyed solving complex engineering problems, designing APIs, and building reliable systems that can scale while remaining simple to maintain.

My core expertise is in Python, FastAPI, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, AWS, and distributed systems. I have designed and delivered subscription billing platforms, event-driven architectures, AI-powered backend services, real-time ETL pipelines, and enterprise applications. I enjoy owning systems end-to-end—from understanding business requirements and designing architecture to deployment, monitoring, and production support.

Over the past year, I have been expanding my focus into AI engineering, building applications with LLMs, RAG pipelines, LangChain, LangGraph, prompt engineering, and AI-assisted development tools. What interests me most is not simply integrating AI models, but building the infrastructure, orchestration, and backend services that make AI products reliable, scalable, and useful in production.

I enjoy working in fast-moving, engineering-first teams where I can collaborate with founders, product teams, and fellow engineers to solve meaningful problems. I am naturally curious, enjoy learning new technologies, and like approaching engineering from first principles—understanding the problem before designing the solution.

Beyond writing code, I enjoy mentoring engineers, participating in architecture discussions, improving engineering practices, and building products that create measurable business impact.

I am currently looking for opportunities as a Senior Backend Engineer, Platform Engineer, AI Infrastructure Engineer, or Founding Engineer, where I can contribute strong backend engineering expertise while continuing to build the next generation of AI-powered products.
