About

I am a Specialist Software Engineer (SSE) with 4+ years of experience, driven by a simple philosophy: build systems that are scalable, resilient, and easy to maintain.Currently at Societe Generale, I specialize in the Java ecosystem, designing distributed systems that handle enterprise-level traffic. I enjoy the challenge of taking complex, legacy architectures and transforming them into modern, fault-tolerant microservices.My engineering approach combines deep backend expertise with a forward-looking focus on Generative AI. I am actively expanding my skillset in LangChain and Agentic AI, building autonomous workflows that can reason, execute tools, and solve complex problems.Core Competencies:Distributed Systems: Microservices, Event-Driven Architecture (Kafka), Caching (Redis).Backend Engineering: Java, Spring Boot, SQL, API Design.Infrastructure & DevOps: AWS, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes.Emerging Tech: LangChain, Vector DBs, RAG Architectures, and Agentic AI.I am an NIT Durgapur graduate actively looking for SDE 2 roles where I can solve challenging backend problems and drive technical innovation.
