• As a Senior Backend Engineer at Detect Technologies, I drive architecture, development, and delivery of scalable microservices powering turnaround planning and industrial automation products. I lead POD-level initiatives, own release stability, and architect production-grade backend systems optimized for scale, latency, and security.
• ✅ Key Achievements:
• Led cloud-agnostic deployment initiative:
• Spearheaded the design and deployment of a multi-tenant, Kubernetes-based infrastructure on VMs with Keycloak for SSO, MinIO as S3-compatible storage, and an open-source observability stack (Grafana, Prometheus, Jaeger). Enabled per-customer cluster isolation while cutting cloud dependency costs by 40%.
• Built reusable checklist engine:
• Developed a dynamic checklist module supporting customizable fields, validations, image uploads, and conditional logic. Deployed across inspection, safety, and field workflows — adopted in 6+ modules, used by 1000+ users/day.
• Drove global product release (v23):
• Led bug triaging and resolution of 100+ functional, VAPT, and performance issues during the company-wide V23 release. Ensured stable delivery across enterprise clients under tight timelines and compliance needs.
• Designed Schedule Assistant & Gantt Planner:
• Architected APIs and cron-based computation services for task scheduling, plan rollups, and critical-path analysis — enabling visualization of 20,000+ interlinked tasks per turnaround. Reduced planner load time by 60%.
• Scaled and optimized backend services:
• Introduced Redis caching, PostgreSQL indexing, read-replica offloading, and Celery-based async workers, reducing API latency by ~40% and increasing throughput under load.
• Team & project leadership:
• Mentored a team of 4+ engineers (SE1, SE2, QA1/2) through code reviews, sprint planning, and onboarding. Collaborated with PMs, DevOps, and Customer Success to ensure first-time-right delivery for mission-critical systems.
