// 01 — about

Building systems that scale,
engineered to last.

I am a Software Engineer focused on building robust infrastructure, distributed systems, and high-performance applications. I specialize in designing scalable software architectures that stay fast and reliable, even under heavy concurrent workloads.

Currently, my work revolves around integrating complex APIs, optimizing database query performance, and scaling real-time transaction services. I enjoy dive-deep profiling, solving bottleneck issues, and designing systems from the ground up.

Level2

Software Development Engineer - I · Remote
  • Led integration of third-party brokerage platforms (Public, TradeZero, MT5), implementing session reuse and exponential-backoff retries for connection timeouts, with an Open/Closed Principle-based design that enables adding new brokers without modifying core logic.
  • Architected an earnings analytics pipeline using corporate-event and intraday market data to generate volatility-adjusted (sigma-scaled) trading signals for backtesting, forward-testing, and real-time analytics.
  • Reduced API latency by 40% through threadpool-based asynchronous execution of blocking data-fetch operations, enabling greater concurrency and reducing request queuing under load.
  • Designed a centralized observability pipeline using Logfire and Redis for structured error aggregation and scheduled ingestion, reducing time-to-diagnose production incidents.
  • Optimized 50+ APIs through cache-aside caching, N+1 query elimination, database indexing, request batching, and connection pooling, reducing response times by up to 70%.
Jul 2024 — Sep 2025

WhatBytes

Software Engineer · Remote
  • Architected an AI-powered conversational platform using Django Channels, Pinecone, and RAG, handling 1K+ daily conversations with sub-500ms response times.
  • Built a secure custom-code evaluation feature enabling users to run their own scoring code against LLM-generated answers inside sandboxed Azure Functions, with safeguards to prevent malicious code execution.
  • Built a real-time emotional intelligence platform analyzing emotion, heart rate, and alertness from video stimuli, improving ML accuracy by 80% through custom processing pipelines.
  • Scaled a 100+ endpoint Django REST backend serving 10K+ daily requests, cutting API latency by 60% through caching and query optimization.

Wagtail

Open Source Contributor / GSoC Fellow · Remote
  • Selected for Google Summer of Code 2025 at Wagtail, a widely adopted open-source Django CMS used by organizations including Google and NASA JPL.
  • Shipped 30+ merged PRs accepted by Wagtail core maintainers, ranking among the top 7 contributors over two years.
  • Built the Redirect API for headless CMS deployments, enabling redirect management for decoupled Wagtail frontends.
  • Refactored FBVs to CBVs, implemented multi-field API ordering, and resolved core issues and bugs.
2022 — 2023

Techsolvo LLP

Software Developer Intern · Remote
  • Developed and optimized features for a web-based EdTech platform, improving query performance of the admin dashboard.
  • Configured automated CI/CD pipelines, accelerating team deployment velocity.
  • Built robust web scrapers and external API integrations for automated content generation workflows.
