I am a Software Development Engineer at Amazon in Berlin, building cloud-native microservices on AWS that serve millions of customers on Amazon's retail platform. I focus on distributed systems, high availability, and operational excellence.
Previously, I interned at Amazon (Berlin), worked as a research student at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) on real-time systems for satellites, contributed to R&D at Software AG, and built enterprise software at NTT Data.
I hold an M.Sc. in High Integrity Systems from Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences and a B.E. in Information Science from PES Institute of Technology, Bangalore.
What I Do
I design and maintain backend services at scale — thinking about system design, fault tolerance, deployment automation, and observability. My day-to-day involves Java, Spring, AWS (CDK, Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, CloudWatch), and infrastructure-as-code practices.
I enjoy the challenge of building systems that are both reliable and simple — where operational burden is low and the architecture can evolve without rewrites.
Research
During my master's thesis at DLR, I worked on response time analysis of real-time task chains for satellite software. I developed an execution model for DAG tasks on multi-core processors with fixed-priority scheduling, improving on prior methods limited to periodic FCFS tasks. The work is published here.
I've also published work on blockchain in healthcare, scheduling simulators, and Bluetooth 5.0 for IoT.
Outside Work
- Running and hiking in Berlin and the Alps.
- Reading — mostly non-fiction, systems thinking, and engineering leadership.
- Side projects — building tools, experimenting with new tech.
- Exploring Europe — I've lived in India, Germany (Frankfurt, Darmstadt, Braunschweig, Berlin).
What I'm Looking For
I'm passionate about working on complex distributed systems, large-scale infrastructure, and products that impact millions of users. I thrive in environments that value engineering rigor, clean abstractions, and continuous learning.
