About

I’m a Master’s student in Computer Science at the University at Buffalo, excited about building systems that are both scalable and reliable. Before grad school, I worked as a Software Engineer at UnitedHealth Group, where I helped modernize large-scale systems, streamline data migration, and design microservices that improved performance for real-world healthcare applications. I enjoy working across the stack—whether it’s writing low-level code in C/C++, building APIs in Java or Python, or using modern frameworks like React, Angular, and Spring Boot. Some of my favorite projects involve operating systems, databases, and reinforcement learning, where I get to dig deep into how systems work. At the core, I love solving complex problems and turning them into practical solutions that make an impact.

Software Engineer

Jan 2022 – Aug 2024 · 2 yrs 7 mos · Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India · On-site

Architected cloud-native platform consolidation reducing 15 legacy healthcare systems into modern microservices architecture; projected $1.4M annual cost savings while serving 200K+ members across behavioral health network.
Optimized backend performance at scale: Profiled and refactored Spring Boot microservices (thread pools, connection pooling, Redis caching, query optimization) → reduced P95 API latency by 35% sustaining 3.5K RPS peak load.
Led zero-downtime Kafka migration from Azure Event Hubs to GCP (50+ topics, 4M+ events/day); engineered multi-threaded Java tooling for automated topic replication and validation, reducing migration effort from 6 weeks → 2 weeks
Built event-driven observability platform ingesting 2M+ daily events into Snowflake; integrated Splunk (logging) and Grafana (monitoring) dashboards reducing MTTD by 40% and enabling real-time alerting for 99.9% SLA compliance.
Delivered HIPAA-compliant full-stack features: Provider search with Elasticsearch (sub-200ms P99 on 500K+ records), real-time SMS notifications, and announcement dashboard using Angular, GraphQL, and PostgreSQL with row-level security
Owned production reliability: Collaborated with US ops teams across 12-hour time difference to resolve incidents, maintaining 99.9% uptime and <2hr MTTR
Impact: Recognized with Bravo Award for Kafka migration excellence; earned 5-star performance ratings for technical ownership
