About

A passionate and results-oriented software engineer with over three years of experience at Amazon, specializing in system design, automation, and scalable architecture. Currently leading the Seller Registration Pipeline platform for Amazon India's Seller Fulfillment organization, I have successfully revamped the platform’s architecture, streamlining onboarding workflows for various Amazon services. My work includes pioneering architectural changes to our state management library, optimizing workflows, and overseeing budget planning at a senior level. As an intern and later a full-time software engineer at Amazon, I have consistently demonstrated my knack for problem-solving and innovation. My collaboration with cross-functional teams has led to the development of automation tools and the implementation of advanced error-handling capabilities, ultimately improving system reliability. I have also contributed to global teams, bringing efficiency to on-call rotations and creating standardized procedures across different locations. My early experience includes developing FlipChat at Flipkart, a cross-platform messaging application, and pitching it to senior leadership for potential adoption. Recognized for my leadership and mentoring abilities, I have received accolades like the “Pinnacle Performer Award” and “Force Multiplier Accolade” for delivering high-impact projects and fostering a culture of knowledge-sharing. My technical expertise spans Java, Python, system design, automation, and AWS, supported by a robust academic background in computer science from BITS Pilani.
