Hey, I'm Sahil! 👋 Senior Backend Engineer with 8.5+ years of experience building high-throughput distributed systems in Java. I've worked across fintech (Interactive Brokers), e-commerce (Shop101), investment banking (Morgan Stanley), and user engagement space (CleverTap) — so I've seen how backend engineering looks across very different domains and scales. At work, I've architected ML-driven platforms processing data for hundreds of millions of users, reduced query execution times by 96%, built integration gateways with 99.9% delivery reliability, and designed cloud-agnostic storage systems across AWS and Azure. I've also been on the other side of the table — conducted 50+ technical interviews covering system design, coding, and behavioral rounds. I know exactly what interviewers look for and where most candidates lose marks. I'm here to help you with: → Resume reviews tailored for backend engineering roles → Mock system design & coding interviews with real feedback → Career guidance — switching companies, salary negotiation, growth path → Backend engineering mentorship — Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, microservices, MongoDB → Interview prep for top product companies Whether you're a fresher trying to land your first backend role, a mid-level engineer preparing for senior-level interviews, or someone looking to break into top product companies — I've been there, and I'm happy to help. Let's chat!
