Senior Backend Engineer

I am a backend engineer who enjoys owning platform-level problems end to end — from architecture and delivery to CI/CD, observability, documentation, and mentoring. At SMTlabs (Vodafone Idea), I built a mobile-first preventive-maintenance platform used by 5k active users at 200+ RPS. Applying CQRS, event-driven workflows, cache-aside with stampede protection, and outbox-style consistency, I cut a write API from 1300ms to 195ms and a list query from 500ms to 50ms.

I architected a Kafka + TimescaleDB pipeline ingesting 85M writes every 5 minutes with state-based sharding and Patroni HA, reducing storage by 80%. Earlier, as technical lead at Relu Consultancy, I scaled a scraping platform to a Kubernetes-orchestrated Selenium Grid with 300+ concurrent browsers and built a production RAG shopping assistant using Scrapy, Pinecone, LangChain, and OpenAI.

I care about building systems that stay fast and reliable in production. I write about backend engineering on my blog, contribute to open-source projects such as curl_cffi and pyseto, and document detailed case studies in my projects.

• Cut write API latency from 1300ms to 195ms and list queries from 500ms to 50ms.
• Designed a Kafka + TimescaleDB pipeline for 85M writes per 5 minutes with 80% less storage.
• Sustained 200+ RPS at 5ms P95 using cache-aside, distributed locks, and idempotent APIs.
• Maintained 99% uptime with Docker Swarm, Nginx circuit breaking, and ELK/APM observability.

Open to senior backend roles and freelance projects.
