I'm Ritesh, a Software Development Engineer at Cleartrip (Flipkart Group). I started here as an intern back in 2020 and worked my way up to SDE-II, currently building on FlyCT. Over the years I've built backend systems, Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, microservices — across air, hotel, and bus verticals, and more recently led the rebuild of our supplier management system using Claude Code, cutting airline onboarding time from 2 months to 2–3 weeks. Outside work, I'm usually on a badminton court, over a chess board, planning my next trip, or messing around in Figma.
