I am a software engineer with 2+ years of backend development experience. I've worked on and also led the development of production grade backend systems with focus on concurrency, scale and usability. ? Languages and tools I've worked with include: ✅ Golang ✅Ruby on Rails ✅Python ✅Redis ✅PostgreSQL ✅Kafka ✅Airflow ✅ Elastic Search ✅Google Cloud Platform ✅Kubernetes ✅Docker While Golang is the language I'm most comfortable with (sort of my 'native software language'), I believe that the core skill in software development is not a specific language or a framework. It is, I would say, the ability to identify and solve any problem that comes up and resiliently create solutions for it - figuring out whatever is required to be learnt in the process. This is what I would say my primary skill is. ? I take pride in making sure that code that I write is: ✅Easily extendable by others ✅Has been tested extensively ✅Supports parallel requests if there is such a use case ✅Can handle a large number of requests (scale) if there is such a use case ? Some projects I have undertaken as part of my work experience include: ✅Built a significant portion of the backend of a distributed storage web-based database from scratch ✅Built and significantly modified a large number of backend APIs as well as micro-services to allow customers to access and update satellite data ✅Built multiple MVCs and POCs from scratch like the backend for a log analytics dashboard, a custom report generating dashboard, a customer data analysis widget etc. I was a writer and a grammar teacher before I became a software developer - and I believe that brings more depth to my work as well as my communication. You will find me to be someone who wants to listen and really understand your problem and only then use my technical expertise to solve it.

Founded and ran successful drama and games-based English classes for kids (Grammar Gang) in New Delhi along with my wife. Despite no nameplate and no promotions (to limit customers), every batch ended up having a waiting list. The classes became popular for interesting and empathetic methods of teaching.
