Senior Software Engineer · Real-Time Distributed Systems & Applied AI
📍 Bengaluru, India · 🎓 IIIT Una · ⚡ 8 years shipping production systems
I build low-latency, high-throughput distributed systems — real-time messaging infrastructure, event-driven microservices, and the platform plumbing underneath them. Eight years across Oracle, PayPal, and Otis, most recently architecting notification microservices serving 400K+ daily requests under strict SLAs. Lately: agentic AI tooling — RAG, vector DBs, and MCP pointed at real operational problems.
"Learn fast && Build fast !!"
