Prateeksha Ranjan — Software Engineer
Backend and platform engineer with 3+ years of experience building production backend services, developer tooling, and automation in Python, Go, and PostgreSQL. I’ve shipped enterprise SaaS features, with a focus on building dependable systems, improving developer workflows, and reducing operational overhead in real environments. • At Keysight Technologies, I build tools that make distributed license systems predictable and easy to operate. I created a Go based CLI to standardize license server operations, automated VM validation with GitLab CI and Pytest, and converted Docker deployments into native deb and rpm installers. These improvements reduced deployment time from hours to minutes, lowered manual engineering effort, and improved reliability across internal and customer environments. • Previously at Linarc and [24]7.ai, I worked on backend systems at scale. I shipped Django and PostgreSQL features used by enterprise clients, improved backend performance through caching and query optimization, and built high-throughput services including an OTP system handling 8,000+ daily requests with 99.8% reliability and an intent-classification pipeline processing over 50,000 messages per day. • Alongside backend work, I bring embedded systems depth from my Synaptics Astra edge AI project: a wearable navigation assistant that fuses on-device object detection with ultrasonic and LiDAR sensing and IMU context to deliver haptic and audio guidance. I built Embedded Linux service-based preprocessing and inference pipelines, led sensor integration across camera, ultrasonic, LiDAR, and IMU inputs, optimized sensor data flow for real-time responsiveness, and benchmarked quantized CV models on constrained hardware to validate latency, stability, and robustness under real-world noise. I’m looking for backend, systems, or platform engineering roles where I can build dependable services and improve developer workflows. I’m especially excited about edge to cloud teams where on device systems connect to backend infrastructure.
