About

I’m working as a Senior Member of the Tech Team (SDE-2) at D. E. Shaw, with 3+ years of experience in building scalable backend systems and real-time analytics platforms. My expertise lies in Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and distributed systems, where I specialize in creating low-latency, high-performance solutions for financial workflows. An alum of IIT Patna (2018 to 2022), passionate about real-world problem solving and taking ideas from concept to completion. Though working in fintech, my inclination has always been toward tech, and still trying to learn a little more about the financial side each day. Always open to connecting with like-minded individuals, feel free to reach out for a quick chat :)
