Core Expertise

Transitioning monoliths to scalable microservices. Event-driven architectures, pub/sub, and highly available deployments.

ARCHITECTURE

Identifying bottlenecks at scale. Heavy query optimization, aggressive caching strategies (Redis), minimizing p99 latency.

PERFORMANCE

Building ultra-low latency peer-to-peer communication, signaling servers, and real-time bidirectional data streams.

Software Developer

Sept 2022 - Present

Progression: Intern → Backend Dev → SDE

▹ Architected and developed scalable, fault-tolerant backend systems powering high-volume, real-time platforms.
▹ Took full ownership of system design, including database modeling, API development, caching, queuing, and load balancing, ensuring high performance, reliability, and maintainability.
▹ Optimized workflows and infrastructure, reducing operational overhead by over 60% and cutting third-party API costs, enabling efficient and scalable product delivery across the platform.

Featured Projects

A showcase of my work spanning scalable backend systems, real-time networking, and high-performance frontend engineering.

Airlink

Real-time Collaboration Platform

Engineered a highly responsive web application featuring instant data synchronization, WebRTC capabilities, and a polished user interface. Built to handle heavy concurrent connections efficiently.

I used to think checking username availability was just:
SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = 'abc'
Then I started reading how systems handle this at billion-user scale 😭
