Software Development Engineer II

Jan 2025 – Jan 2026

Remote, India

Jan 2025 – Jan 2026Remote, India

Backend performance: Led company-wide Django-to-Jinja migration across 40+ modules managed by 10+ teams; reduced page load from ~1000ms to <200ms (5x improvement). Optimized critical APIs (evaluations, notes, candidate screening) via SQL query rewriting (N+1 elimination, indexes, complex join rewrites), Celery/Redis async offloading, and Redis/Django cache strategies — reduced API response times by 40-60%.
System design: Architected unified candidate view backend integrating 5+ microservices with efficient data aggregation and low-latency queries (<50ms avg). Built Elasticsearch-based resume screening pipeline for candidate matching across large datasets.
DevOps collaboration: Worked with infra team on deployment pipelines and database migrations; led production incident response using Datadog, Sentry, and Logz.io.
Mentored SDE-1 engineers on backend best practices: async patterns, DB optimization, and API design.

May 2022 – Aug 2024Remote, India

Backend architecture: Designed and built scalable Django + PostgreSQL backends with RESTful API patterns, JWT authentication, and role-based access control; optimized database schema for low-latency queries (<50ms avg) via proper indexing, select_related/prefetch_related (reduced query count by 40%), and caching for frequently accessed data.
AI backend: Built Django backend from scratch for SalesGPT AI sales assistant; integrated OpenAI APIs with rate limiting, retry logic, and exponential backoff; implemented Celery/Redis async pipeline for LLM response generation, webhook processing, and analytics aggregation.
End-to-end deployment: Full Azure setup (Gunicorn/Nginx, PostgreSQL, Redis, SSL, daemon processes) with monitoring, logging, alerting, and auto-scaling for AI workload spikes.
