Suraj Dhankad — Software Engineer
As a Software Engineer with hands-on experience in building scalable backend systems, I've consistently focused on delivering performance-driven solutions in fast-paced environments. At Snapmint, I led impactful backend optimizations—migrating services from Express to Fastify for better routing performance, replacing Winston with Pino to implement an asynchronous, centralized logging system across microservices, and transitioning a critical service from REST APIs to Kafka-based communication to bolster inter-service reliability at scale. I also engineered Redis-based distributed caching, significantly cutting API latency for over 2M+ users, and diagnosed a key production issue by curbing unnecessary database pulls from 100+ to just 1 per month. Additionally, I developed comprehensive unit tests using Mocha, Chai, and Sinon, increasing test coverage and reinforcing system reliability. Previously, at Recruizo, I architected and developed a high-performance coding contest platform using TypeScript, Next.js, and MongoDB—boosting system efficiency by 40% and reducing response time by 30%. I also integrated AWS S3 for secure and scalable test case storage, reinforcing my understanding of cloud infrastructure. I'm in my final semester of completing my B.Tech from Delhi Technological University and am currently seeking full-time opportunities. With a strong foundation in Data Structures and Algorithms, Operating Systems, DBMS, and OOP—and hands-on experience in building scalable systems and microservices—I'm passionate about solving real-world problems through efficient software design and development.
