About

I'm a passionate software engineer with a diverse skill set and a track record of contributing to high-impact projects. My technical expertise includes hands-on experience with Java, Golang, Python, and React, as well as proficiency in working with SQL and various NoSQL databases, such as MySQL, Redis, DynamoDB, and ElasticSearch. I have a strong background in distributed systems, microservices, and message queues like Kafka, and I've leveraged the AWS stack, Docker, Kubernetes, GoCD, and Terraform to build robust solutions. In my most recent role at Meta, I've been a key player in enhancing the App Ads Platform, focusing on crucial modules like device registry, ads exclusion, deep linking, and device app histories. Additionally, I've contributed to the stability and revenue generation of Meta through my work with a range of technologies, including Hack for server-side development and React.js for web applications. Prior to my time at Meta, I made impactful contributions at Microsoft, Disney+ Hotstar, Walmart Labs, and Goibibo, where I honed my skills in backend development and system architecture. I've also had the privilege of working on projects that handle millions of requests per minute, ensuring top-notch performance and scalability. My journey in the tech industry began at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad, where I earned my B.Tech in Information Technology. With a strong foundation and a commitment to excellence, I'm excited to take on new challenges and continue pushing the boundaries of technology. Let's connect and explore opportunities to collaborate on innovative projects.
