About

Software Engineer with several years of experience building scalable distributed systems, real-time platforms, and production AI applications. I’ve delivered systems with measurable impact, including a RAG-based AI grading tool that reduced grading effort by ~30%, and a low-latency messaging platform supporting 2,000+ weekly active users with sub-200 ms p95 latency. My work spans Node.js, Java, Kafka, Redis, cloud platforms (AWS/Azure), and CI/CD, with hands-on experience deploying RAG-based chatbots, AI-assisted automation tools, and event-driven backend services into production. I enjoy working on backend-heavy problems involving scale, reliability, and system design, and I’m actively exploring opportunities where I can build high-performance backend systems with real business impact.
