About

Lead Tech at D. E. Shaw, building scalable workflow and HR platforms used by global teams across multiple offices and time zones. I specialize in backend systems and platform engineering — designing high-throughput APIs, ETL pipelines, and automation frameworks that power critical business operations. My work has helped transform previously manual, hours-long processes into fully automated workflows, improve system uptime through proactive monitoring, and establish reliable data pipelines across enterprise systems. Tech I work with daily: Java, Spring Boot, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines. I enjoy solving hard infrastructure problems, building systems that scale, and mentoring engineers to grow into strong contributors. Open to conversations around backend engineering, platform design, and high-scale systems. 📧 email.pulkitj@gmail.com
