Global Edge Proxy

Low-latency routing across global POPs.

Engineering backend systems that scale in production

Dedicated to building high-performance server-side architectures, robust REST APIs, and database optimizations.

Engineering Overview

I am a Backend Engineer based in India with 3+ years of experience designing and shipping production software across fast-paced environments like Bluebash and Techlapse.

My core expertise spans building modular REST APIs with Node.js and Express.js, designing MongoDB/MySQL schemas, and optimizing aggregation pipelines. At Bluebash, I architected a reseller platform and optimized database performance, cutting API response times by ~60%.

I've contributed to infrastructure monitoring systems at scale, including client platforms managing 1,500+ distributed proxy resources, and enforce strict JWT/RBAC security policies.

Technical Core Competencies

Backend & APIs

Scalable REST APIs, Node.js, Express.js, and Event-Driven Systems.

Databases & Optimization

MongoDB aggregation pipelines, indexing, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis.

Security & Auth

JWT, RBAC, API Key Management, and access control hardening.

Testing & Quality

Jest, Supertest, unit/integration testing, and CI/CD pipelines.

System Design

Production-grade architecture with real-time notifications via Socket.io.

Cloud & Infrastructure

AWS EC2, S3, Docker containerization, and DigitalOcean deployments.
