About

I am a motivated and detail-oriented B.Tech student with a strong interest in backend development, scalable systems, and problem-solving. Currently, I am interning at Paytm as a Backend Java Developer Intern, where I am working with technologies such as Java, Microservices, Kafka, and Redis to understand and contribute to scalable backend architectures and high-performance applications in a fast-paced fintech environment. Through this internship, I have gained practical exposure to distributed systems, API development, asynchronous communication, caching mechanisms, and industry-level software development practices. I am also strengthening my understanding of system design, debugging, teamwork, and writing efficient and maintainable code. In addition to backend development, I have experience in C++, Data Structures & Algorithms, and AI/ML-based projects. I enjoy learning new technologies, solving complex technical challenges, and continuously improving my development skills. I am currently seeking remote opportunities where I can apply my backend development knowledge, contribute to impactful projects, and grow as a software engineer in a collaborative environment.
