About

Senior Backend Engineer with 8 years of experience building and scaling high-traffic distributed systems at leading product companies like Flipkart, NoBroker, and Cleartrip. Specializing in Java, Spring Boot, AWS cloud architecture, and microservices, I have led initiatives that reduced SLA breach investigation time by 40%, migrated 8+ inventory services (~500M records) with zero downtime, and architected real-time ML engines for demand forecasting during Big Billion Days. Beyond engineering scalable systems, I focus on driving platform resilience, cross-team collaboration, and deep technical mentorship. I’ve consistently delivered high-impact solutions across fulfillment, payments, and notification systems — handling 10M+ daily transactions. Currently seeking Staff Engineer / SDE-3 / Backend Tech Lead roles where I can architect critical backend platforms, lead engineering teams, and solve complex scaling challenges. 📬 Let’s connect: gaonkarmahesh14@gmail.com | 📍 Bengaluru, India
