About

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance backend systemsand product-grade platforms. I specialize in Golang and Python, with a strong foundation in distributed systems, microservices architecture, and event-driven design. At uTrade Solutions, I’ve played a key role in modernizing backend infrastructure migrating monolithic systems to microservices, designing Kafka-based asynchronous pipelines, and optimizing low-latency services for high-frequency trading platforms. These efforts resulted in significant performance gains, including reduced latency, improved throughput, and better system resilience under peak load. I’ve also built and scaled secure, API-driven platforms, developed SDKs published on PyPI, and integrated payment systems, authentication flows (OAuth2/JWT), and third-party services. My work spans performance optimization, database design (PostgreSQL, Redis, DynamoDB), and containerized deployments using Docker and AWS, always with a focus on clean code and long-term maintainability. Beyond writing code, I enjoy owning systems end-to-end, collaborating closely with product, QA, and DevOps teams, and translating complex business requirements into reliable technical solutions. I’m particularly drawn to solving system design challenges and building backend foundations that scale with the product. I’m always open to conversations around backend engineering, distributed systems, and product-focused problem solving. 👉 Feel free to connect or message me if you’re building impactful products or looking for a backend engineer who thrives at scale.
