About

First-year graduate student pursuing a Master’s in Computer Science at Stony Brook University. As a former Software Engineer at Zomato, India’s leading online food delivery platform, I worked on building reliable and scalable backend systems. My work spans infrastructure design, system optimization, data and storage performance, internal tooling and improving developer efficiency across high-traffic services. I primarily worked with Go and my tech stack includes AWS, Kafka, Elasticsearch, DynamoDB, SQS, Redis, MongoDB and MySQL. I’m also an active competitive programmer and have solved 1200+ problems on Leetcode. I am passionate about designing and building distributed systems and tackling complex engineering challenges where efficiency, scalability, and reliability are crucial. I take end-to-end ownership and aim to leverage my skills to deliver innovative solutions, drive efficiency and contribute to impactful projects. I am actively seeking internship opportunities starting May 2026 in Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Full Stack Development or any other role that aligns with my passion for building reliable, efficient, and distributed software systems.
