About

🚀 Passionate about building backend systems that scale – I’m a Java Software Engineer with hands-on experience in designing and operating high-performance, distributed Observability platform. At Dream11, I own the real-time observability system that processes billions of events, and scale of 1M RPS. 💡 My expertise lies in: - Java backend development – microservices, concurrency, APIs - Distributed systems – event-driven design, high-throughput processing - Cloud-native environments – AWS, GCP, CI/CD automation ✨ What drives me? The challenge of building systems that don’t just work, but work reliably at scale — serving millions of users without missing a beat. I’m particularly motivated by opportunities where innovation meets reliability. 📬 Let’s connect if you’re working on fintech, scalable backends, or cloud-native platforms — I’m always up for a discussion on building resilient systems.

  • â—¦ Designed and scaled event ingestion pipeline on GCP (Cloud Run + Pub/Sub) handling 230K+
  • requests/sec with fault tolerance and low latency.
  • â—¦ Implemented Android side logic to capture and process users atomic interaction on-device (e.g., contest join, payment, KYC), computing performance/error metrics locally and sending structured events to backend ingestion for analytics and monitoring.
  • â—¦ Developed scalable microservices and REST APIs that powered near real-time ( 1 min latency)
  • dashboards for monitoring user experience metrics, including Apdex score, error rate, latency, and
  • experience categorization across user flows such as contest join, team creation, payment, etc.
  • â—¦ Implemented a dual-database system using BigQuery (primary event store) and MySQL (caching layer)
  • to balance deep analytics with low-latency queries powering real-time dashboards.
  • â—¦ Built user interaction onboarding framework supporting event sequences, blacklist rules, and threshold
  • configurations, giving teams flexibility in defining atomic user interaction flow.
  • â—¦ Built a real-time alerting framework for user experience metrics (Error rate, Apdex, user distribution,
  • latency P50/P95/P99) across user flows (like team creation, contest join, add cash, etc), with a self-service dashboard for managing alerts, severity-based Slack (Whistlebot) integration for incident response.
  • â—¦ Delivered a scalable real-time user activity tracking system with event search, experiment discovery, and AI-driven journey insights, helping customer support and engineering teams resolve issues faster.
  • â—¦ Set up and maintained CI/CD pipelines using in-house tool Odin and managed GCP infrastructure
  • (Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, BigQuery), ensuring automated deployments and high availability across services.

  • Developed a core Rate Limit Filter base class using Python and OOP principles, expediting new filter creation for consistent performance
  • Resolved latency using Redis list structure, enabling the filter to provide transaction approval decisions within the 100ms timeframe
  • Created a dedicated job for systematic removal of expired Redis values in an existing background thread, and conducted extensive testing
  • Integrated the rate limit base class with two existing filters, reducing Redis storage costs for expired values and enhancing performance
