About

6 years of experience in building scalable, cloud-based microservices using Java, Spring Boot, Dropwizard, Postgres, Couchbase, Kafka and AWS services, in fintech, telecom and e-commerce contexts. Working knowledge of JavaScript, Python and C, and mostly use them in personal projects. Inherent interest in the technical aspects of complex systems; picked up a sense over the years for the business value that solutions offer and how it all affects the end user. Try my best to be a team player and believe that any group of people can form a good team, effective and functional, when constructive communication is encouraged, goals are formalised and people feel like they belong.

Experience

Kredx

Software Developer

Aug 2021 – Present · 4 yrs 7 mos · Bangalore Urban, Karnataka, India · On-site

Was absorbed into KredX as a full-time backend software engineer after a year-long period on contract.
Designed and led the implementation of a settlement and reporting system sought after for more than 5 years, crucial to on-boarding 3 high ticket size customers, resulting in more than 80% of remaining active customers adopting the new system.
Took ownership of a total conversion process for a flagship product making it fully SaaS and cloud agnostic, increasing revenue by 20-30% at least for that year on the first customer acquisition.
Vastly improved a frequently used hyper-critical system check triggered 3 times per core business workflow, producing a 67X speedup on average by aggressively applying SQL query optimisations without changing the API interface at all.
Fully designed a major improvement on an in-house electronic signature collection feature that improved agreement signing API times by 70-80%, reduced agreement signing TAT by 1 day on average, solidified compliance, and streamlined KYC processes throughout the platform.

Software Developer - On Contract

Mar 2020 – Aug 2021 · 1 yr 5 mos · Bangalore Urban, Karnataka, India · On-site

Worked with KredX's invoice discounting platform providing working and growth capital to MSMEs.
Designed and owned a data sync module that acts between web applications for two lending products and a CRM (provided by Zoho) that ensured consistency for business lead creation, conversion and activity logging across all involved systems, eliminating a lead loss of around 15% and enabling cross-selling for around 40% of converted leads.
Moved a time-consuming physical address verification process fully onto the application for administrators, decreasing customer on-boarding TAT by more than 4 working days on average.
Enhanced a flaky cashflow analysis process by making third-party integrations parsing customer bank statements more robust and fault-tolerant, increasing success rates from around 60% to slightly more than 98% given 4 retries.

Jul 2017 – Mar 2019 · 1 yr 8 mos · Pune/Pimpri-Chinchwad Area · On-site

Designed and implemented features in a technical conversion solution for a customer on legacy CRM and Order Management products to modernize overall user experience by moving to simpler middleware abstractions and reduce daily scheduled downtime by 3 hours as a consequence.
Identified and with the legacy product expert's help resolved an incessant but unpredictably recurring concurrent user access issue affecting almost 40% of all cases with lost updates under the new application flows.
Took initiative to implement an external API logger in the ReST layer covering all internal and third-party services to shave 3-4 hours off of triage time per issue from all sides involved.
Designed the canonical entity ID obfuscation system used by all microservices in the then-new versions of the CRM and OMS suites.
