About

I am a Senior Lead Engineer (graduated from IIT with a Computer Science degree) with 10 years of experience in architecting and scaling robust microservices-based platforms. My technical toolkit spans Node.js, Express.js, ReactJS, PostgreSQL, Lambda, S3, Batch, SQS, AWS Cloud, Kafka, Redis, WebSockets, Docker, and real-time event-driven systems. Technical Strengths: 1. Backend Architecture: Deep expertise in designing fault-tolerant, scalable services and real-time systems. 2. Cloud & DevOps: Proficient with the AWS ecosystem, Dockerized deployments, and asynchronous data processing. 3. Team Leadership: Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams, mentor junior engineers, and drive engineering best practices in fast-paced startup environments. 4. Domain Experience: FinTech, CRM, EdTech, Digital Asset Management, and Document Custody Systems. Key Projects 1. At Onesaz (EdTech), I architected and delivered a scalable Learning Management System (LMS) serving 100K+ students across 33 institutions (tenants). I implemented an authentication and authorization microservice to be used across the eLearning application, enforcing a secure one-device-one-session policy. I also integrated keystroke dynamics analysis via Kafka and AWS Lambda, enabling real-time behavioral insights and increasing product value and revenue. I have implemented tenant-aware session tracking, admin impersonation features, per-tenant rate limits, and custom schema extensions—all of which directly apply to SaaS platforms. 2. At Air.inc (Lead Backend Engineer), I handled the migration of 50+ TB of digital assets (videos, audio, images, documents) using optimized ETL pipelines. I designed and implemented serverless pipelines (AWS Lambda, S3, Batch) to automate video transcoding (HLS, DASH) with FFmpeg and AI-powered image tagging, significantly improving content management workflows.
