About

I am a backend-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience designing, building, and scaling high-performance systems across SaaS, e-commerce and cloud platforms. At Microsoft, I have designed scalable APIs, worked on LLM-based project, modernized legacy into modular framework, and delivered multi-region deployments with reliability and automation. I take ownership from requirements to on-call operations, while mentoring engineers and collaborating with multiple partner teams to deliver consistent, high-impact solutions across services. Previously at Flipkart, I contributed to the Cart & Checkout service handling 20k+ QPS, driving core platform enhancements that improved checkout conversion, reduced latency, and ensured resilience at scale during Big Billion Days. My earlier roles at Wingify, Juggernaut Books, and Eazydiner gave me end-to-end ownership of payment systems, user flows, and customer-facing applications — including building entire platforms from scratch. My toolkit spans C#, .Net, C++, Powershell, Azure, Python, Java, Flask, Django, Dropwizard, Redis, Kafka, SQL, and modern CI/CD practices. I focus on solving complex problems through strong design (HLD/LLD), data-driven decisions, and scalable architecture. I occasionally write about engineering practices and industry trends on LinkedIn.
