Gaurav Jain — Backend Engineer
Integration-focused Backend Engineer with a strong foundation in Problem Solving, APIs, Python and production-grade SaaS Integrations. Currently, I work as an Integration Developer on a Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP), where I build and maintain reliable, customer-facing Integrations with external vendor APIs. My work is centered around designing extensions that operate safely at scale and continue to function despite vendor inconsistencies and API changes. My responsibilities include: - Building incoming feeds, outgoing feeds, enrichers, and data transformation pipelines - Designing robust API Integrations with retries, Idempotency, and clear failure handling - Deep analysis of vendor API documentation, rate limits, auth models, and data contracts - Customizing Integrations based on customer-specific threat intelligence workflows - Optimizing extensions to reduce API calls, latency, and operational cost - Writing production-quality Python code with a strong focus on correctness and readability - Debugging live Integration issues and updating extensions as vendors introduce API changes - Writing and maintaining test cases to ensure long-term stability of integrations - Collaborating directly with vendors and customers to understand use cases, constraints, and integration gaps Previously, I worked at a real-time, real-money gaming company, where I primarily used Go (Golang). In that role, I: - Rewrote a large portion of the Backend for a real-time Rummy game with 50K+ monthly active users - Optimized the system for Scalability, Performance, and maintainability - Refactored the codebase to align with company-wide engineering standards - Built a Go microservice using AWS Kinesis to stream gameplay and user statistics to analytics platforms such as MoEngage, Facebook, and Appsflyer I have solved 600+ Data Structures and Algorithms problems on LeetCode, which shapes how I approach system design, edge cases, performance optimization, and debugging in real production systems. I enjoy building integration-heavy SaaS systems where correctness, observability, and reliability are non-negotiable. I’m particularly interested in roles that involve API platforms, data ingestion pipelines, third-party integrations, and customer-driven engineering problems.
