I’ve spent my career designing and building scalable, secure, and high-performance software systems across backend and full-stack architectures, primarily in cloud-based environments. My hands-on experience includes Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, along with React and JavaScript. I’ve designed resilient microservices using Java, Spring Boot, and Ruby on Rails, and have worked extensively with both SQL and NoSQL databases. A key part of my work involves API design, performance analysis, and system optimization in real production systems. Having participated in numerous technical interviews—both as a candidate and as an interviewer, I understand what differentiates a strong engineer from a strong interview performer. My mentoring focuses on helping candidates structure their thinking, articulate design decisions clearly, and handle interview discussions with confidence. Continuous Learning & AI Focus I am currently pursuing a Post Graduate Program (PGP) in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from the University of Austin, delivered through Great Learning. This program deepens my understanding of modern AI/ML concepts and enables me to guide engineers who are transitioning toward AI-adjacent roles or working in systems influenced by AI-driven architectures. I also hold a Professional Certification in Cloud, Blockchain & IoT (ACSE) from IIT Madras (Great Learning), reflecting my commitment to continuous learning and staying aligned with evolving industry practices. Through 1:1 mock interviews and personalized mentoring, I help engineers identify gaps, refine their approach, and build the clarity and confidence needed to perform well in real interview scenarios—especially for backend, system design, and senior engineering roles.
