Software Engineer

I’m Chandan, a backend-leaning software engineer with almost six years of experience in GoLang and Kubernetes domain. Over the years, I’ve worked across RestAPI, gRPC, GraphQL, Yugabyte, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Harness, Github Action and various other cutting-edge technologies to build scalable and reliable systems deployed on Azure/AWS cloud platforms. I stay close to the web platform, enjoy learning new system designs and internals, and keep exploring devops practices, observability, and automating the little tasks that make development faster.
