I’m a Software Development Engineer (SDE-2) with strong hands-on experience in building scalable, production-grade microservices using Java, Spring Boot, MongoDB, and Kafka. Over the last year, I’ve interviewed extensively for SDE-2 and similar backend roles, which has given me deep clarity on: Backend system design expectations DSA + problem-solving patterns Real interview feedback and hiring signals I enjoy breaking down complex concepts into simple, practical explanations and helping others prepare with real-world insights, not just theory. If you’re preparing for backend/SDE roles or want clarity on interviews, systems, or career direction—I’m happy to help.
