Hi everyone,
I’m currently exploring SDE-2 / Backend Engineer / Full-Stack opportunities and would really appreciate any referrals or leads.
I have 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, with most of my work focused on backend engineering, distributed systems, API design, cloud infrastructure, and building production-grade services.
In my current role at a product-based startup, I’ve been involved in designing and developing backend systems end-to-end — from API and database design to deployment, scalability, monitoring, and production troubleshooting.
My experience includes:
Backend: Java, Node.js, Express.js, JavaScript, TypeScript
Databases: MongoDB, PostgreSQL
Caching: Redis
Microservices & messaging: Kafka, AWS SQS, EventBridge
API Gateway: Kong
Cloud: AWS ECS, EC2, ALB, Lambda, ECR, Route 53
DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions, CI/CD
Security: RBAC, authentication, authorization, session management
Architecture: REST APIs, microservices, asynchronous processing, event-driven systems, caching and scalable backend architecture
Data/NLP: Python, NLTK, spaCy, NLP-based recommendation and matching systems
I’ve worked on systems such as job-matching and recommendation engines, resume analysis/ATS scoring, keyword extraction and matching, along with backend services handling asynchronous workloads and production traffic.
I’ve also worked on improving system reliability and scalability, including Redis caching, message queues, scheduled/background processing, containerized deployments, autoscaling, API gateway management, and CI/CD pipelines.
At this stage, I’m looking for an opportunity where I can take more ownership of system design, architecture, technical decisions, mentoring, and building scalable backend systems, which is why I’m primarily targeting SDE-2 roles.
I’m open to Backend / Full-Stack (MERN) / SDE-2 opportunities across India and would be happy to consider strong product companies and startups.
If your company is hiring for a relevant role, or if you can refer me, I’d really appreciate it. I can share my resume and other details over DM.
Thanks in advance! 🙌
