About

As a Software Engineer with 3 years of experience in backend development, I currently work at Meesho, one of India’s leading e-commerce platforms, where I design and build high-scale, resilient backend systems. My work spans across system design, microservices architecture, and distributed systems, using technologies such as Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, Dragonfly, Redis, MySQL, MongoDB, Kubernetes, GCP and Mongo DB. I graduated from IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, one of the premier engineering institutes in India. During my studies, I developed a strong foundation in software development, data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving. I also participated in various open source initiatives, such as GirlScript Summer of Code, where I contributed to several projects using Android, Git, and Github. I am passionate about learning new skills and technologies, and I aspire to become a leader in the software industry.
