About

My expertise lies in designing efficient, event-driven backend architectures and solving complex problems using strong algorithmic thinking. Passionate about building reliable, performant, and scalable systems. I am an experienced Software Engineer with a strong background in backend system design, data pipelines, and distributed systems. Over the years, I've worked across high-impact projects in observability (AIOps), monitoring, and cloud infrastructure at companies like Nutanix and Kony. At Nutanix, I contributed to building scalable data ingestion platforms, integrating OpenTelemetry into existing pipelines, and significantly improving monitoring performance for systems like vCenter and SQL Server. I also led development on a licensing and automation platform (XPlay), crafting internal message buses, gRPC APIs, and VM orchestration APIs. Previously,I designed high-throughput alerting and batch processing systems at Kony (Temenos), supporting up to 10K alerts/minute. Tech Stack: Golang, Python, Kubernetes, Java, C++, OpenTelemetry Collector, Docker, NATS, Cassandra, RabbitMQ, Temporal, REST, gRPC, GraphQL, MySQL, GCP, AWS Skils: Problem solving, Data structures, System design, Docker, Data ingestion pipelines, Fault tolerant system, Low level design, Design patterns
