Srishti Prasad — Backend Engineer

I started my journey as an engineer curious about how real-world systems behave under load, failures, and imperfect data. Over time, that curiosity turned into purpose: designing backend services that are stable, predictable, and resilient in production. Today, I work as a Backend Software Engineer in a fintech environment, where I design and maintain production-grade APIs, integrate with legacy and modern systems, and handle real incident scenarios that impact customers. What drives me is not just writing code, but understanding the system behind the code — how failures propagate, how data flows, and how design decisions affect reliability over time. I enjoy working close to real production problems, collaborating across teams, and learning by debugging things that don’t behave as expected. Alongside my engineering work, I actively write technical blogs for the developer community, breaking down backend concepts and real-world production learnings into clear, practical insights. Writing helps me reflect on what I build, deepen my understanding, and share knowledge with others. I’m currently focused on growing into a strong backend / distributed systems engineer, with deeper expertise in system design, streaming systems and scalable backend platforms. My goal is to build systems that engineers trust, businesses rely on, and users never have to think about. Always learning. Always improving. Always curious about what happens after the code is deployed.
