About

Engineering Manager with 11+ years of experience building and scaling high impact backend systems across fintech, e-commerce, and customer experience platforms. I currently lead teams at StockX, owning post-purchase experience services, CRM integrations, and internal platforms that process billions of events daily and power customer history at scale. I’ve led large scale migrations including zero downtime migrations recognized company wide and re-architected monoliths into scalable microservices. Highlights from my StockX journey: * Leading and scaling globally distributed engineering teams * Building and operating high throughput systems with strong correctness guarantees * Designing extensible payments platforms with clean state transitions and idempotency * Driving AI adoption in real, production workflows * Building AI assisted solutions solving problems including natural language search and enhancing customer experience * Delivering complex migrations with zero downtime and measurable business impact Previously, I’ve worked at Zeta, Paytm, and Oracle, building payment platforms, rewards systems, cloud runtimes, and high-performance search pipelines. I care deeply about clean architecture, pragmatic engineering, and teams that ship reliably. I enjoy solving ambiguous problems, mentoring engineers, and turning messy systems into calm, scalable ones.

Paytm

Backend Developer

Nov 2015 – Aug 2017 · 1 yr 9 mos · Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Built many core features for the Paytm Travel products - Flight, Bus & Insurance. Here are some things I did where I've had the most impact.
Rewrote the flights architecture to fix a critical underlying problem that had a severe impact on the business.
Developed a cli tool to helps engineers test their changes locally. It achieves the goal by supporting flight operations like search/reprice/book/block flights. This has saved a lot of time for all our devs and stabilized the staging env, since there aren't unstable local changes getting deployed.
Improved the bus search results time by 10x (5 seconds to 500ms)
Designed and developed the Paytm Insurance product from scratch along with another engineer.
Tech involved: Node.js, Nginx, Redis, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Logstash
