About

Software Engineer with experience in backend development, distributed systems, and scalable services. At Cisco, I redesigned FTD–FMC communication by moving from persistent stateful connections to an asynchronous architecture, improving scalability and efficiency. At Zomato, I optimized the feature toggle service by pruning redundant toggles, implemented caching strategies to reduce compute/DB overhead, and built a dynamic query parser for the data lake—cutting analyst dependency and boosting performance. At BetaTest Solutions, I worked on two projects where, along with working on website frontends, I applied client-side caching and lazy loading to deliver strong-performing websites.
