Kushagra Agrawal — Backend Engineer

Backend Engineer with hands-on experience designing scalable, low-latency distributed systems using Node.js/TypeScript, Python, AWS, SQS, Kafka, and modern web frameworks. I enjoy breaking down complex backend flows, optimizing system performance, and building architectures that are reliable, predictable, and easy to scale. At Zupee, I work on the backend powering real-time Rummy gameplay—where milliseconds matter and reliability defines user experience. My work centers around: • Scalable microservices & real-time game communication • Low-latency async processing using SQS (and actively experimenting with Kafka) • Custom persistent-connection agents to cut handshake costs • Graceful shutdown patterns for safe pod replacement • Debugging deep event-flow problems, table migrations, and state transitions Before this, at Quadeye, I worked on automated trading operations—building pipelines for reconciliation, pre-trade setups, and price validation across multiple exchanges. At Creditas Solutions, I designed full-stack systems including secure authentication, scalable file-management, frontend performance optimization, and end-to-end backend flows using Next.js, Django, SQL, and Redis. I enjoy backend engineering that demands strong fundamentals—OS, DBMS, OOP, concurrency, system design—and I constantly explore better ways to improve latency, resilience, and reliability. Alongside work, I keep pushing myself through problem-solving: ✔ 1500+ DSA problems ✔ LeetCode 1870 rating (Top 4.8%) ✔ AIR 2310 (JEE Mains) ✔ AIR 5200 (JEE Advanced) What drives me is simple: I like building systems that work fast, work reliably, and keep working even when everything else doesn’t.
