I am a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience specializing in the FinTech sector. My core expertise lies in building high-performance distributed systems, microservices, and backend infrastructure using tools like core Java, Apache Spark, and Kafka. Lately, my research and technical focus have expanded into local AI implementation. I spend a lot of time experimenting with orchestrator-worker agent patterns and running open-source models locally on specialized hardware. Beyond backend architecture and AI, I have a strong interest in the intersection of technology and entrepreneurship, specifically looking at high-leverage ways to tech-enable traditional family businesses and exploring the startup ecosystem across the Delhi NCR and Uttar Pradesh corridors. Outside of software, I enjoy tinkering with custom 3D design and fabrication, utilizing LiDAR scanning and 3D printing. Whether you want to chat about scaling Java backends, the future of open-source AI, or brainstorming ideas for regional transit startups, feel free to reach out.
