Technologies: Java, Python, C++ | Kafka, Spark | MySQL, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch | Docker, Kubernetes | AWS/GCP | Machine Learning, Deep Learning | LLMs, RAG, Agents, LangChain, Vector Databases | Distributed Systems | Agentic AI SystemsSoftware engineer with ~3 years at Flipkart (Walmart) building and operating large-scale distributed backend systems serving high-throughput production workloads.
I’m a strong generalist engineer who enjoys owning problems end-to-end and working across:
• Backend / Distributed Systems
• Applied AI / ML (Agentic Systems, RAG)
• Big Data / Data Engineering
• Infrastructure Optimization
Some systems I built or owned in production: • Led revamp of Flipkart’s Offers platform → redesigned service architecture & introduced Kafka, reducing latency by 75% & increasing opt-ins by 50%
• Built Rewards System from scratch (Java, Elasticsearch, Kubernetes) → delivered ~400% ROI
• Designed Seller Penalization system (Kafka, Spark, Elasticsearch) → reduced product returns by 10%
• Optimized large MySQL clusters → disk usage 91% → 30%, CPU 17% → 5%, latency ↓ 50%
• Built price recommendation pipelines (Spark/Scala) → adoption grew 165%
I’ve also handled real production challenges including database scaling, data-center migrations, and recovery of a deleted production database with zero data loss.Interested in Backend Software Engineering or AI Engineering roles. Please feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to chat and discuss further.
