Ashwin Shirva — Software Engineer

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building high-performance, cloud-native, microservice-driven systems with Golang, Kubernetes, Docker, Cassandra, REST, and gRPC. My work consistently focuses on designing scalable architectures, delivering production-ready features end-to-end, and driving engineering excellence across teams. Over the years, I’ve developed deep technical expertise in Golang, including concurrency (goroutines, channels), generics, interfaces, synchronization primitives, and performance tuning. I’m equally strong in distributed system design, API scalability, data modeling, and optimizing services that handle high-traffic, low-latency workloads. I take complete ownership of the modules and services I build starting from requirement analysis, HLD/LLD creation, implementation, testing (TDD), and integration, all the way to monitoring and optimization in production. I write clean, maintainable, well-designed code and push for strong engineering practices like CI/CD, code quality automation, and robust observability. On the leadership side, I currently lead a team of developers, handling task planning, design discussions, daily syncs, mentorship, and code reviews. I actively contribute to architectural decision-making, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and ensure timely and high-quality feature delivery. What I Bring to the Table? • 10+ years of hands-on experience building cloud-native microservices with Go, Docker, and Kubernetes • Strong command over distributed systems, concurrency, API performance, and scalable service design • Expertise in REST/gRPC (unary & streaming models), TDD, mocks, and automated testing • Experience with Cassandra and NoSQL data modeling in high-availability environments • Proficient with Git/GitLab/GitHub workflows, CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins), and code quality tools (SonarQube, golangci-lint) • Strong debugging and analytical skills with observability tools (Kibana, logs, metrics) • Experienced in Agile environments with a track record of delivering reliable, maintainable systems • Passion for clean architecture, performance optimization, and engineering leadership I’m highly driven by building impactful systems, solving complex technical problems, and helping teams deliver their best work. I thrive in environments where ownership, innovation, and high-quality engineering matter.
