Gurpreet Singh — Software Engineer
Backend engineer who builds systems that scale to millions. I solve complex distributed systems problems at Gojek, Southeast Asia's leading super-app serving millions of users daily. My work sits at the intersection of high-volume event processing, real-time data pipelines, and performance optimization—turning infrastructure challenges into measurable business impact. What I've built recently: Scaled event processing infrastructure handling 10M+ daily events and 100M+ weekly push notifications across 20+ microservices Slashed API latency by 89% (450ms→50ms) through strategic cache optimization and Go concurrency patterns Designed gamified onboarding systems that increased user activation by 15.5% Developed automation tools that reduced manual work by 90% and earned Aptean's Center of Excellence Award I work primarily with Golang, Java, Kafka, Redis, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes—building event-driven microservices that are fault-tolerant, observable, and performant. Whether it's implementing circuit breakers, designing idempotency patterns, or optimizing database queries, I focus on engineering solutions that are both elegant and pragmatic. Beyond coding, I enjoy mentoring engineers (coached 15 bootcamp participants) and contributing to technical discussions around distributed systems architecture. Ranked in the top 1.5% on GeeksforGeeks with a score of 900. Currently exploring: Advanced system design patterns, Low-Level Design principles, and exciting backend opportunities at companies pushing the boundaries of scale and reliability.
