About
- Backend Engineer focused on distributed systems and data infrastructure, building systems that prioritize correctness, fault tolerance, and performance.
- Built a Raft-based distributed KV store and a GFS-inspired file system, handling replication, consistency, crash recovery, and high-throughput workloads.
- Experienced in designing scalable APIs, data pipelines, and real-time systems, including LLM-powered platforms and high-concurrency backends.
- Strong in systems fundamentals: concurrency, consensus, storage, and failure handling, not just application-layer development.
- Comfortable shipping across the stack when needed, but most interested in backend, infra, and system design problems.
- Finalist at Smart India Hackathon 2024 and active open-source contributor.
