About

I am a Backend Focused Fullstack Software engineer. I have built systems using Python, React/Redux, Rust, Django, Flask and Node.js and its ecosystems. Besides that, I have worked with cloud environments within AWS, Azure, GCP primarily with AWS EC2, Lambda, S3, EKS, ECS, ECR and so on. Skilled in designing and implementing CI/CD DevOps pipelines with Jenkins and Github actions, deploying microservices using Docker and Kubernetes, Terraform for infrastructure management and optimizing application performance. My professional path has been shaped by my firm commitment to achieving operational excellence. I enjoy solving complex system design problems, mentoring engineers, and improving developer workflows through automation. I’m AWS Certified (Solutions Architect – Associate) and passionate about bridging development and operations to ship resilient software at scale. Current interests: distributed systems, Rust in production, cloud observability, and platform reliability. Let’s connect if you’re working on reliability, infrastructure, or backend platform challenges.
