🚀 My Journey in Tech My journey in tech began with a hustle. I started as an SDET Intern at MakeMyTrip, where I built an iOS automation suite that significantly improved bug capture in production. That early experience taught me the importance of reliability and scalability in backend systems, and it sparked my passion for not just testing—but designing and writing production-grade code. As I transitioned into backend engineering, I discovered my love for solving complex, real-world business challenges. Over the years, I’ve built systems that power large-scale logistics platforms, financial workflows, and applied AI integrations. My work has ranged from enabling secure parcel payments and orchestrating pickup scheduling algorithms across regions, to event-driven pipelines handling millions of logistics events per day. Along the way, I’ve developed real-time notification engines, architected auction bidding platforms using reactive programming, and more recently, started building GenAI-powered backend systems. This includes customer support chatbots that dynamically generate database queries and vector-embedding solutions with LLM reranking to predict customer routes directly from speech input. My toolkit reflects this journey—I work deeply with Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, and event-driven architectures, while leveraging databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and Milvus to make these systems reliable, fast, and scalable. Today, I call myself an Applied AI Backend Engineer—combining scalable backend foundations with modern AI/LLM capabilities to solve business-critical problems. 🎯 Why I Mentor I know firsthand how tough it can be to transition—from testing to backend, or from backend to applied AI. That’s why I offer 1:1 mentorship, sharing not just theory but battle-tested lessons from the field. In our sessions, we’ll cover: Career Guidance → Navigating transitions like SDET → Backend → AI. Technical Mastery → Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, backend architecture, databases. Interview Prep → Cracking backend, DSA, and system design interviews. Applied AI → Integrating AI/LLMs with backend systems for real-world impact. ✨ Whether you’re a student breaking into tech or a professional aiming to upskill, I’ll help you craft your journey, sharpen your skills, and achieve your career goals.
