After years of building, scaling, and leading engineering efforts across backend systems, I’m exploring new opportunities where architecture, distributed systems, and technical leadership meet.
My focus areas include:
System Architecture & Design: Crafting resilient, observable, and maintainable systems that scale.
Distributed Systems: Designing and evolving services that thrive under load and handle failure gracefully.
Technical Leadership: Driving clarity in complex systems, mentoring engineers, and shaping high-impact engineering culture.
Scalability & Performance: Deeply understanding system bottlenecks and making software fast, reliable, and cost-efficient.
I’ve led engineering efforts spanning from core platform design to large-scale service deployments, with an emphasis on clarity, reliability, and developer experience.
Hi, I have worked as a backend engineer for 15+ years. I have recently started building small frontend projects with ReactJS. I am open to all big or small companies and for short or long-term contracts.

I have been using selfhosted email for over 2 years now. mail in a box once setup I haven't done anything! other than occasional updates from the admin interface.
I am currently doing it, near to the forest & foothills of a small mountain south of India. Also, I travel to SE Asian countries to places which are not so urban. While there are many advantages, I see myself travelling to Bangalore quite often to feel the developer vibes and talk to like-minded people to beat loneliness.
After spending enough time in Bangalore and then in Cebu (Philippines), With the convenience of remote work, it influenced my priorities to clean air and water than meetups and people. Work-life harmony is much better, while the work-life balance is out of question currently with the workload. I find myself not spending money, there is some energy left in the evening to read, I go walking near the mountains and meditate every morning. Life has turned out to be better overall.
Products like these will change the future of how learning and new skills will come out of Cambodia.
I just returned from Cambodia last week. I have been around the provinces with my Cambodian friend. What I came to know is many young people who are also smartphone users are not able to read or write Khmer, let alone English. The smartphone usage is mainly around using facebook, mostly to post pictures and watch videos. Though the internet infrastructure is good in Cambodia, it's underutilized.
What I wish to see is how localization and learning software powered by TTS/AI along with inexpensive hardware would inspire them to learn and acquire global outlook.
Wouldn't it be more practical to just teach them to read and write? The model for getting out of poverty is well established at this point and literacy is an essential component.
In fact I'd argue the stakes are pretty high because if we don't help these people become literate they'll end up little more than attention batteries plugged into Zuckerberg's Facebook Matrix.
