About

Senior Backend Engineer (4+) – Golang, Distributed Systems, Security, Performance I design, build, and scale backend platforms that stay fast, fault‑tolerant, and secure under hundreds of transactions per second and millions of daily writes.My past work was on transforming monolith into micro services , enforcing encryption‑first security—all while acting as the single point of contact for production reliability. Impact Highlights • Enabled seamless onboarding of multiple enterprise customers. • Cut fraudulent activity 20 percent with a real‑time fraud detection pipeline. • Secured sensitive data end‑to‑end with AES‑256 and RSA encryption, strict validation, and image‑integrity checks. • Developed video‑processing server self‑KYC flows via Go. • Saved 30 percent in cloud costs by moving ML inference from CPU to GPU and tuning memory footprints. • Achieved 80 percent+ test coverage and zero‑downtime releases through Git‑driven CI/CD, blue‑green deployments, and canary rollout strategies. Core Technical Stack Golang, gRPC, REST, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, Kubernetes, Gin, Gorm, Git, AES‑256, RSA, , Prometheus/Grafana Operating Style • Ownership mindset—led incident response, root‑cause analysis, environment management, and on‑call rotations. • Performance‑first engineering—profiling, cache‑aware data layouts, and zero‑copy I/O are standard practice. • Security by design—threat modelling, encryption at every layer, rigorous code reviews. • Team accelerator—mentored junior engineers, ran internal tech sessions, and instituted clean‑code standards. What I’m Looking For Senior or staff‑level backend roles where deep system design, high‑throughput workloads, and rock‑solid security are everyday challenges. Remote‑friendly and global opportunities welcome. If you need an engineer who can turn complex requirements into resilient, high‑performance systems, let’s connect.

  • Role summary
  • Owned and scaled a high‑throughput, KYC‑as‑a‑service backend that processes 300+ transactions per second and millions of writes per day. Highly involved in the platform’s evolution from a monolith to a cloud‑native microservices architecture while serving as the single point of contact for production reliability, security, and customer onboarding.
  • Key responsibilities
  • Platform ownership – Directed the end‑to‑end architecture, development, and 24×7 operation of the company’s flagship KYC backend, including roadmap planning, SLA management, and incident response.
  • System design & development – Designed scalable services in Go, gRPC, and REST; modelled PostgreSQL schemas; optimised hot paths with Redis ,orchestrated workloads on Kubernetes and Docker.
  • Security leadership – Implemented AES‑256 and RSA encryption pipelines, enforced strict input validation, and drove threat‑modelling sessions to embed “security by design” across the stack.
  • Automation & CI/CD – Built blue‑green and canary deployment scripts, and an automated simulation‑and‑test framework (unit, integration, load) achieving 80 %+ coverage and zero‑downtime releases.
  • Production SRE – Owned on‑call rotations, root‑cause analyses, performance profiling, SLIs/SLOs, and observability (Prometheus, Grafana).
  • Cross‑functional collaboration – Coordinated with product, data‑science, and customer‑success teams to deliver features, SDKs, and custom integrations for enterprise clients.
  • Team enablement – Mentored junior engineers on Go best practices, clean architecture, and distributed‑systems patterns; established coding standards and review check‑lists.
