About

I’m a Backend Software Engineer (SDE-2) at Groww with 2+ years of experience building scalable, fault-tolerant systems in fintech. Skilled in Java, Spring Boot, microservices, and distributed systems, I’ve worked extensively with Temporal, Kafka, Redis, MySQL, and HashiCorp Vault to deliver reliable, business-critical services. At Groww, I’ve re-architected core NBFC services, reducing SLA breaches, executed disaster recovery drills for high-availability systems, and scaled KYC/loan workflows to onboard thousands of users faster. I’ve also driven Canary deployments, CI/CD improvements, and mentoring initiatives, strengthening both reliability and team productivity. I’m passionate about automation, developer productivity, and resilient backend design, and I thrive in roles where engineering meets scalability, performance, and impact.
