About

I am a software engineer at Flipkart, one of India's leading e-commerce platforms, where I develop and enhance microservices using Java distributed systems such as Apache kafka,Storm ,elasticsearch,Python and Dropwizard framework. I leverage my skills in data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented programming to deliver scalable and reliable solutions for the advertisers and the customers. I have strong understanding of tools such as Apache Spark, Kafka, and Storm. For example, I worked as the project lead for creating brand stores, a feature that increased the sales and engagement of the advertisers by 10% and 12%, respectively. I also reduced the latency of a critical API by more than 90%, by creating a Spark job that populated a database at regular intervals. I graduated from Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in electrical, electronics and communications engineering, where I participated in several projects and competitions related to ML, Android, and data analysis. I was a national finalist in Deloitte Technotsav, a contest that challenged students to solve real-world business problems using technology. I also obtained multiple certifications in ML, Python, and Neural Networks from IBM, Coursera, and HackerRank, respectively. I am passionate about learning new technologies and solving challenging problems. I enjoy working in a collaborative and agile environment, where I can contribute to the team's success and grow as a professional. I aspire to become a proficient and innovative software engineer, who can create value for the customers and the society.
