Vighnesh Hegde — Software Engineer
Software Engineer at Meta building scalable backend systems and internal business platforms (CRM). I enjoy working on problems where reliability, performance, and scale matter — designing APIs, services, and data flows that power real user workflows rather than just isolated features. My experience spans both monolithic and microservices architectures, and I care deeply about writing systems that are observable, fault-tolerant, and maintainable over time. I’ve worked across the full stack, but my strongest interest lies in backend and distributed systems — service communication, async processing, caching, and data consistency. I particularly enjoy reasoning about system behavior under load and making trade-offs between simplicity and scalability. Previously, during my MCS at NC State University, I built multiple production-style applications including event-driven services, messaging workflows, and AI-assisted platforms, which shaped how I approach system design today: start simple, measure, and scale intentionally. Technically I work primarily with JavaScript/TypeScript and Java ecosystems, building services and APIs with modern frameworks, databases, caching layers, and messaging systems in cloud environments. I’m always interested in conversations around backend engineering, distributed systems, and platform reliability.
