As a Software Engineer II at Akamai Technologies, I’m part of the Zero Trust Security - Enterprise Application Access (EAA) team, where I contribute to building secure, scalable, and resilient systems for enterprise-level identity and access management. My focus lies in backend engineering, cloud-native development, and Zero Trust architecture, helping enterprises protect critical applications through seamless and secure access control. Previously, at Airtel X Labs, I worked on cutting-edge 5G solutions, utilizing technologies such as Golang, Gin, gRPC, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and microservices architecture. I was passionate about building scalable and efficient APIs that enhanced digital experiences and business performance. Before that, I contributed to JioTV at Jio Platforms Limited, developing backend services for one of India’s largest media platforms. I engineered high-performance, distributed systems using Node.js, Redis, MongoDB, Cassandra, and Kubernetes, ensuring seamless media delivery to millions of users. I hold a B.Tech in Information Technology from the College of Engineering Pune (COEP). Throughout my career, I've consistently focused on mastering backend technologies, improving system performance, and solving complex problems with practical, maintainable code. I'm always excited to collaborate with forward-thinking teams and build products that have real-world impact, especially in the domains of cloud security, scalability, and enterprise software.
