About

I am a Staff Software Engineer with nearly 8 years of experience building scalable, high-performance backend systems across fintech, payments, and enterprise SaaS. Currently at Agoda, I work in the Payouts Platform revamp, designing new architecture that handle 10M+ monthly transactions across 50+ markets, ensuring reliability, security, and scalability. Previously, I worked at Visa, contributing to both the Data Platform and Payments Platform, where I built secure libraries and services to be used by payment services and high volume data transfers in file systems and databases. I began my career at Sprinklr, improving advertising workflows and implementing AI algorithms that increased campaign ROI. I hold a Master’s in Computational Natural Sciences from IIIT Hyderabad, with two publications in reputed international journals, and a B.Tech (Hons) in Computer Science, where I was consistently recognized on the Dean’s Merit List. I specialize in Java, Kotlin, Spring, Microservices, Kafka, Distributed Systems, System Design, and Databases, and I am passionate about solving complex problems and building systems that scale globally.
