Backend Engineer

Aug 2025Dec 2025 · 4 mos · New York, United States · Remote

  • Built a bank reconciliation matching engine that automatically matches transactions with payments and invoices. Instead of doing everything manually, the system uses multiple AI approaches working together to figure out which transactions match what.
  • Delivered:
  • A customer-first matching system that figures out which customers to look at first, cutting down the search space by 99% - way faster than checking everything
  • Integrated XGBoost model that scores all matches and auto-accepts the really confident ones (95%+)
  • A memory system that learns from successful matches - the more it runs, the smarter it gets
  • Built it to handle failures gracefully - if the LLM API goes down or the ML model isn't available, it still works using fallbacks
  • Processes most transactions in under 2 seconds, with full audit trails so you can see what happened
  • Worked on client issues and optimized a parent-child relationship feature by devising a two-phase implementation approach that improved performance and maintainability

  • I contributed to the development of a real-time distributed system to enable seamless task execution and image streaming across backend and frontend services. I used Redis Streams and Pub/Sub patterns to build robust data pipelines between system components, ensuring message consistency and delivery reliability. Additionally, I integrated WebSocket-based UI updates to provide live feedback to users, cutting down the delay in task and camera interactions by 30–40%, resulting in a significantly improved user experience.

  • During my open-source internship with FOSS Overflow, I engineered a secure authentication system with role-based access control (RBAC), ensuring that permissions were tightly controlled and scalable for larger user bases. I also improved database query performance by 40% through optimized indexing and schema redesign.
