About

As a Software Engineer at Maersk, I work on complex backend systems that manage real-time data from container yards, vessels, and global logistics networks. Our platform coordinates multiple microservices and leverages Temporal to orchestrate distributed workflows across diverse data models—enabling consistent, reliable data processing and transformation at scale. With over 7 years of experience in backend and cloud engineering, I’ve built, scaled, and optimized systems across industries. Previously, as a Software Development Engineer III at Walmart, I specialized in building scalable backend systems, robust microservices, and intelligent DevOps solutions using Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, MongoDB, and Python—delivering major cost savings, performance improvements, and real-time visibility. From reducing cloud storage costs by $50,000/month with a Tiered Storage Architecture to developing a deployment monitoring dashboard integrated with GitHub APIs, I enjoy solving complex challenges with production-grade, efficient solutions. Earlier at Tata Consultancy Services, I engineered high-performance APIs and managed cloud-native applications at scale, earning recognition for contributions to Marks & Spencer’s digital transformation. Beyond work, I love experimenting with open-source tools and cloud-native projects, from Spring Integration flowchart generators to secure multi-node K3s cluster deployments—turning ideas into tools that make teams faster and systems smarter. Let’s connect if you’re passionate about resilient backend architectures, distributed systems, or developer efficiency.

Software Engineer

Sep 2025Present · 8 mos · Bangalore · Hybrid

  • At Maersk, I’m part of the team building high-performance backend systems that power real-time logistics and container operations across ports, vessels, and yards worldwide. Our platform integrates and processes massive streams of data from diverse sources to provide accurate, low-latency insights for global supply chain visibility.
  • Key technologies and responsibilities include:
  • Designing and implementing microservices in Java and Spring Boot, optimized for scalability and reliability.
  • Using Temporal to orchestrate distributed workflows, ensuring data consistency and fault tolerance across services.
  • Developing event-driven pipelines with Kafka for real-time data ingestion and inter-service communication.
  • Leveraging PySpark and Databricks for large-scale data transformation, aggregation, and analytics.
  • Collaborating across cross-functional teams to streamline data modeling, integration, and monitoring of core logistics systems.
  • By combining stream processing, distributed workflow orchestration, and scalable backend design, we’re modernizing how global logistics data is processed and acted upon in real time.
