Rohit Shukla — Software Engineer
Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience designing and delivering scalable, fault-tolerant backend systems that power products used by hundreds of millions of global customers. I specialize in distributed systems, backend microservices, and cloud platforms — with hands-on expertise in Go, Java, TypeScript/Node.js, AWS (ECS, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, API Gateway), Kafka, and Redis. My work has consistently delivered measurable impact: Scaled personalization APIs to serve 200M+ Amazon Prime members with <200ms latency, improving engagement by 15%. Built event-driven data pipelines with Kafka + DynamoDB that reduced processing time from hours to <1 minute. Designed high-throughput payment microservices for Amazon Luna (Cloud Gaming), enabling millions of monthly transactions with Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal. Led integration of third-party Prime benefits (Grubhub, OneMedical), driving 18% adoption growth in the first quarter post-launch. Beyond building reliable and performant systems, I’m passionate about technical leadership and mentorship. I’ve conducted 50+ technical interviews, guided junior engineers, and presented at Prime TechCon. I thrive at the intersection of technical depth and cross-team collaboration, helping organizations define a clear technical vision while shipping features that customers love. Always curious, always learning — I’m motivated by opportunities to build mission-critical systems that scale, last, and make an impact.
