I'm primarily a backend engineer who loves working on hard problems at scale.
* Proficient in writing performance critical systems in Java/Scala/C++
* Worked extensively on Hadoop, Map Reduce, Spark, HBase and Kafka
* In-depth knowledge on the AWS eco-system
* Good understanding of OLAP / data processing / analytics domains
* I have worked with search systems like SOLR and ElasticSearch and I've scaled them to hundreds of millions of records
* Working knowlege of the machine learning space (I've built classifiers, trained models for predictions, etc.)
* Hands-on with Ansible and managing Linux servers
* Outcome focussed - I prefer picking the right technology for the right job
The most challenging system I have written till date is a distributed store in C++ for answering analytics and search queries with low latencies.
I'm also passionate about start-ups, hiring and user experience. I have built and launched a number of side-projects that have thousands of passionate users from all around the world.
