I’m passionate about problem solving. I’m rated Expert on Codeforces (1661), 5-star on CodeChef (2077), and was ranked 187 in Google Kick Start Round B 2022. I also ranked in the top 5000 in JEE Advanced and was part of a top-200 ICPC team. At Cashfree Payments, I’ve led several high-impact backend initiatives. I built a token-based routing algorithm that maintained 100% uptime for our UPI Switch during peak IPL traffic. I also revamped our refund processing flow, cutting turnaround time from days to hours. My work on merchant-facing products like QR payments, offline Soundbox solutions, and onboarding flows helped drive over ₹200 Cr in annual GMV. My toolkit includes MySQL, Redis, Kafka, AWS, and a strong bias for clean code and system reliability. I’ve developed robust alerting systems to reduce MTTR and built infra components that directly improved user experience and business outcomes.
