Hi, I’m Ekesh, a Senior Backend Engineer with 5.5 years of experience building scalable backend systems and distributed architectures. I’ve worked at companies like MakeMyTrip and Blink Health, where I designed and optimized high-scale systems using Java, Python, AWS, microservices, and Elasticsearch. Some of my key work includes: • Optimizing a 15TB Redis cluster using an LFU caching strategy, significantly reducing infrastructure costs • Building orchestration systems across 15+ microservices using Camunda • Designing operational dashboards using Elasticsearch and Spring Boot • Improving system performance and reducing CPU utilization by 25% in production systems I’m passionate about helping developers understand real-world backend engineering beyond theory. I can help you with: • Backend interview preparation • System design fundamentals • Java / Python backend architecture • Microservices and distributed systems • Performance optimization • Career guidance for backend engineers Also exploring AI-assisted development and automation to build smarter engineering workflows. If you’re preparing for product companies or want to grow as a backend engineer, feel free to book a session.
