Senior Backend Engineer • Distributed Systems • 6 yrs @ Jio
I design and ship Spring Boot systems that stay correct under load — Kafka pipelines, WebFlux services, and the failure modes that only show up in production.
Working logs from real systems — outages, migrations, and the failure modes that only show up in production.
Every page on this blog advertised an RSS feed that returned 404. No single line of code was wrong — four independently sensible decisions composed into a file that existed only inside a CI runner. Plus a cross-domain sitemap, a verification file an SPA can fake, and what Hugo, Astro and Eleventy do differently.
Every doc in this repo described a site that no longer existed — a terminal aesthetic replaced a year ago and a colour system reduced to an identity function. Auditing them turned up 60 lines of configuration that no code reads.
A major bump to marked changed every renderer method to take a token object instead of positional strings. The build kept exiting 0 while emitting the literal text [object Object] into 34 of 39 posts — and a missing curl flag nearly convinced me nothing was wrong.
scalable-chat-platform was down for two months and I did not notice. A free-tier Postgres powered off, its DNS record vanished, and a servlet filter took the whole app down with it — including the health endpoint that was supposed to tell me. Now with the Render-side postmortem: a 59-day hole in the deploy history, an empty healthCheckPath, and one of my own conclusions falsified.

Production systems and side builds — chat platforms, truth-checking tools, and games with measurable constraints.
A production real-time chat application built with Spring Boot 3.2 and React 18, running on Render against Aiven PostgreSQL, MongoDB Atlas and Upstash Redis. Multi-database architecture, WebSocket messaging, and a deployment I have since taken apart in public — including a two-month outage post-mortem.
A VS Code extension that measures the ACTUAL impact of AI coding assistants on developer productivity based on peer-reviewed research, not vanity metrics. Works with any AI assistant (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf Cascade, etc.) and tracks what actually matters: code quality, true productivity gains, and economic ROI.
A cyberpunk Tetris variant written to a hard constraint: one HTML file, no build step, no dependencies, no network. Everything — game loop, rendering, virus mechanics, audio — lives in under 50KB of vanilla JavaScript against a 16ms frame budget.
Classic Snake rebuilt under the same single-file constraint as VOID BLOCKS: zero dependencies, Canvas 2D rendering, and one input layer that has to work identically for keyboard and touch.
