I’m a self-taught programmer and currently a Senior Software Engineer at Visa. Before this, I spent 4 years at Oracle as a Software Developer, where I strengthened my foundations in backend engineering, system architecture and building reliable, scalable services. I’m passionate about problem-solving, diving deep into server-side technologies and taking on real-world engineering challenges. Whether it’s optimizing performance or experimenting with side projects, I love learning, building and constantly pushing the limits of what I can create.
• Implemented core features in MySQL Connector/Python (Pure-Python and C-extension), improving reliability and performance across enterprise applications. • Improved framework compatibility features including Django ORM and SQLAlchemy, improving developer experience and reducing integration complexity. • Engineered asynchronous connection pooling, enabling 3× higher throughput and supporting over 10K concurrent sessions with lower latency. • Developed features including OpenID Connect authentication, query read/write timeouts, strengthening security and reducing downtime risks for enterprise clients. • Achieved a 20% reduction in client-side query execution latency by minimizing serialized query packet size.
• Built core components of a B2B scholarship platform on AWS (Django, DRF, Redis, PostgreSQL, Kafka), scaling to 1M+ peak daily requests. • Introduced Kafka-based pipelines for student submissions, increasing throughput by 70% under peak traffic.
