Shivam Chauhan — CTO
As a Senior Technical Lead at Paytm, I lead the backend development initiatives within the lending vertical, one of the fastest-growing and most innovative segments of the company. I'm passionate about designing and developing scalable and reliable systems that power cutting-edge financial solutions for millions of customers. With a strong background in Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and Redis, I spearhead the architecture and optimization of backend components, ensuring high performance and alignment with business requirements. I also manage and optimize MySQL databases, implementing best practices for data integrity and availability. In addition, I collaborate with cross-functional teams, participate in code reviews, and mentor junior developers. I hold a Bachelor of Technology degree in Information Technology from JSS ACADEMY OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION, NOIDA, where I honed my skills in web services, XML, and NoSQL. I have over four years of experience in backend development, working with leading companies such as Iris Software and RBS, where I developed the ETL framework for fixed income products and worked with Calypso V13 and Swift protocols. My goal is to engineer solutions that stand the test of time and empower innovative applications. I thrive in architecting robust backend infrastructure, leveraging my expertise in distributed systems and microservices. I find immense satisfaction in turning complex challenges into elegant, efficient code.
