About

As a backend software engineer with more than 5 years of experience, I've contributed to building robust, scalable systems in both the e-commerce and ad-tech industries. At Yahoo (Ads Reporting Team), I work on Big Data pipelines to power real-time and large-scale reporting systems for advertisers. Developing reporting systems for Yahoo DSP, enabling advertisers to analyze campaign performance, optimize bids, and improve ROI. My work involves technologies like Hadoop, Druid, Hive, EMR, and EKS, ensuring efficient data processing and insightful analytics. Previously, at Myntra, I played a key role in the CRM Notifications Team, building microservices to send timely customer alerts (SMS, emails, app notifications) for order updates using Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and Redis. I’m passionate about solving complex problems, optimizing data pipelines, and delivering high-impact solutions that drive better user experiences. Always eager to learn and adapt to emerging technologies. Let's connect!
