Senior Backend Engineer • AI Enthusiast

Building scalable systems with Python & modern AI.

9+ years of software engineering experience designing and building backend services, high-throughput REST APIs, and scalable distributed architectures using Python and AWS — actively exploring modern GenAI and agentic systems.

About Me

I am a Senior Backend Engineer with over 9 years of software engineering experience, specializing in architecting, developing, and operating resilient backend systems, REST APIs, and microservices at scale.

My core foundation centers around Python (FastAPI, Django, Django REST Framework, Flask), distributed system design, and database-driven applications. Throughout my career, I have taken end-to-end technical ownership of backend platforms—from schema modeling across PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis to optimizing asynchronous workloads, caching strategies, and high-availability cloud deployments on AWS.

My engineering journey originated in geospatial computing and spatial data engineering, where I engineered spatial queries, data processing pipelines, and PostGIS solutions. That early data-intensive foundation catalyzed my natural progression into large-scale backend engineering, API architecture, and distributed services.

I emphasize production-grade engineering: clean application architecture, measurable system performance, clear domain boundaries, and pragmatic automation that keeps mission-critical services highly available and maintainable.

Featured Projects

Real-world systems highlighting backend architecture, API engineering, databases, and scalability.

Backend Architecture

Simulation Center Platform (TEL, CCL, NEL)

Problem

Training and evaluation laboratory platforms needed a robust, high-throughput backend to orchestrate concurrent training sessions, laboratory equipment telemetry, and state synchronization without latency bottlenecks.

Solution

Architected modular backend services utilizing Django and FastAPI to handle laboratory session workflows, telemetry ingestion, and simulation state coordination across multi-tenant environments.

Engineering

Designed asynchronous REST endpoints, integrated Redis caching and state storage, structured MongoDB and PostgreSQL schemas for simulation data, and containerized microservices orchestrated with Docker Swarm and MinIO S3 storage.

Distributed Systems

Enterprise Incident Automation & Health Platform

Problem

Enterprise production environments suffered from fragmented alerting streams and manual triage overhead during operational anomalies, necessitating high-speed, reliable incident ingestion and self-healing execution.

Solution

Engineered a centralized, event-driven backend service in FastAPI that ingests alerts, evaluates remediation runbooks programmatically, and initiates automated remediation actions with full audit observability.

Engineering

Implemented asynchronous webhook ingestion endpoints, Redis-backed event deduplication queues, PostgreSQL for state and runbook definitions, and integrated Prometheus/ELK for comprehensive diagnostic tracing.

AWS & Cloud Backend

SafelyBack & MoveTek Distributed Fleet & Storage Services

Problem

Transportation fleets and mission-critical enterprise systems required resilient automated backup coordination, strict data verification, and real-time tracking pipelines operating with high availability.

Solution

Developed serverless and containerized backend components coordinating automated snapshotting, scheduled backups, and live asset tracking endpoints with high data integrity guarantees.

Engineering

Leveraged AWS Lambda, S3, and Boto3 for event-driven storage operations, built robust REST APIs backed by MongoDB and Redis for low-latency operational data, and deployed scalable container workloads via Docker.

E-Commerce & Scalability

TradeIndia B2B Enterprise Core Services

Problem

A high-volume B2B trade marketplace required fast catalog querying, secure business communication APIs, and resilient data processing pipelines for high concurrent merchant traffic.

Solution

Developed backend APIs and business logic services using Python and Django to power supplier-buyer matching, inquiry processing, and transaction management.

Engineering

Designed optimized relational schemas in PostgreSQL, implemented caching layers with Redis, built scalable REST endpoints, and automated background data processing workflows via shell scripting and Linux daemons.

Spatial Data Engineering

Geospatial Processing Engine & Spatial APIs (MapmyIndia)

Problem

High-scale map datasets and location services required heavy spatial transformations, geofencing computations, and spatial index querying over massive geographic coordinates.

Solution

Engineered automated Python data processing workflows, spatial queries, and backend scripts to ingest, transform, and structure spatial layers for geographic search and visualization.

Engineering

Authored high-performance spatial SQL procedures in PostGIS/PostgreSQL, automated large-scale dataset conversions using Python, and integrated ESRI ArcGIS and QGIS spatial databases.

Professional Experience

9+ years of progressive software and backend engineering leadership across enterprise environments.
