About

👨‍💻 I’m a Full Stack Developer currently working as an SDE 1 at Finmo, where I build scalable and high-performance systems in the FinTech domain. I love solving complex backend challenges, improving system efficiency, and delivering features that create real business impact. I’ve worked on major initiatives like iPiD Payee Verification, Merchant Offboarding automation, payout queue optimizations, dynamic onboarding enhancements, and secure Node.js upgrades — taking ownership from design to production while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams. 🚀 Previously, as an SDE Intern at Scaler, I developed backend features like WhatsApp test result automations to improve learner engagement. I also gained experience in building microservices and system integrations during my internship at Maximl. With a B.Tech in Computer Science from SRM University AP, I’m continuously upskilling in backend engineering, AWS, DevOps, and scalable architecture. I enjoy writing clean, reliable code and thrive in fast-moving product environments where learning and collaboration come first.
