About

I’m a Software Engineer who ships production backends, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure, with strong ownership from design through deployment.

My work spans FastAPI services, auth and access control (Okta, Supabase RBAC/RLS), observability (Langfuse, Grafana Alloy), and AWS/Kubernetes deployments automated with Terraform and GitHub Actions. I care about maintainable code, measurable latency, and systems that stay understandable as they grow.

I’ve cut API p95/p99 latency from 450 ms to under 100 ms at 80 RPS, migrated analytics stacks with Fivetran and dbt, and built platforms serving thousands of users with payments, real-time chat, and live streaming.

Education: B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering (2025). Coursework in DSA, DBMS, operating systems, networks, and OOP.

Beyond work: 300+ DSA problems across LeetCode and GeeksforGeeks, open-source contributions, and hands-on systems projects (including a Redis-compatible server in Go).

Clean architecture, reliable releases, and code you can reason about under load.
