About

Senior Software Engineer | Scalable Systems | Distributed Systems | Backend Development I’m a Senior Software Engineer with ~5 years of experience building scalable, high-performance software systems that deliver real business impact. Currently, I’m part of the Digital Team at Kotak Mahindra Bank, where I build innovative solutions in the digital banking space. My work spans designing scalable architectures, improving user experiences, and delivering robust software that supports millions of users. Previously, I was at Apna, one of India’s largest professional networking platforms in the grey-collar space. I joined as an SDE-2 and later transitioned to a Senior Software Engineer role. I worked on features directly impacting user growth and engagement, contributing to the platform’s rapid scale. Earlier in my journey, I worked at Delhivery, a leading logistics company, where I gained hands-on experience building enterprise-grade systems for the last-mile leg (eg- Automated Dispatcher, POD Audit) and developed a strong foundation in system optimization and performance engineering. My technical toolkit includes Java, Python, Node.js, Golang, and React, along with experience in designing microservices, event-driven systems using Kafka, distributed systems, and working across AWS, Azure, and GCP cloud platforms. I thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments and enjoy solving complex engineering challenges with clean, efficient code.
