Senior Backend Engineer · Distributed Systems · AI-Augmented Development
Backend engineer and technical leader with 7 years of experience designing and scaling high-throughput distributed microservices for large-scale commerce platforms. Technical owner of Order & Refund platforms at Reliance AJIO, actively leveraging AI tooling to multiply team productivity.
// Who I Am
I'm a backend engineer specialising in high-throughput distributed microservices for large-scale commerce. At Reliance AJIO, I own the Order and Refund platforms end-to-end — from architecture decisions and API design through to production reliability and on-call response during high-traffic sale events.
I care deeply about system resilience, observability, and performance — designing for fault tolerance with circuit breakers, building cache strategies that sustain peak loads, and establishing engineering standards that raise the bar across entire platform teams.
Beyond the backend, I'm an early adopter of AI developer tooling — integrating Claude, MCP, RAG pipelines, and Cursor AI into real workflows to dramatically accelerate delivery and reduce context-switching for the whole team.
// What I Work With
// Where I've Worked
// AI-Augmented Development
Built and integrated MCP-based context servers to expose internal APIs and documentation to AI agents, enabling intelligent automation of backend workflows.
Designed RAG pipelines to query large codebases and internal knowledge bases using embeddings and vector search — reducing context-switching and improving developer productivity.
Used as a coding and architecture assistant to accelerate design reviews, generate boilerplate, and validate system design decisions in complex distributed systems.
Primary AI-augmented IDE for writing, refactoring, and debugging Java/Spring Boot services with context-aware code completion across large service codebases.
// How I Lead
Technical owner of Order and Refund platforms during high-traffic sale events — accountable for architecture, reliability, and on-call response.
Drove architectural decisions on caching strategy, consistency models, and resiliency patterns, raising the quality bar across the backend platform.
Mentored junior engineers through design reviews, performance debugging, and production incident resolution.
Collaborated with product, QA, and SRE teams to define acceptance criteria, observability standards, and release gates — zero regressions on critical APIs.
Set engineering standards for structured logging, cache observability, and circuit-breaker usage — adopted across the entire order platform team.
