About Aniket Khare

Senior Technical Architect with 16+ years of experience designing and delivering scalable, cloud-native enterprise applications using Microsoft.NET, React, and Azure/AWS. I specialize in Microservices architecture, distributed systems, and modern frontend patterns including Micro Frontends and Backend-for-Frontend (BFF).My recent focus includes integrating Generative AI and LLM-based engineering into enterprise software development. I work hands-on with Azure OpenAI, agentic AI approaches, ChatGPT Codex, and organization-specific Codex skills to accelerate development and build intelligent, context-aware tools. This includes implementing RAG pipelines, vector search, embeddings, tokenization, and transformer-based architectures.Key strengths:•.NET Core, C#, Web APIs, EF Core• Microservices, CQRS, Event-Driven Architecture• Saga (Choreography/Orchestrator), Circuit Breaker, Retry• Azure/AWS cloud architecture, Docker, Kubernetes• React, TypeScript, SPA frameworks• AI/LLM Engineering: Azure OpenAI, Codex, RAG, Embeddings, Tokenization, Transformers• Developer productivity using GitHub Copilot, Cursor, AI-assisted workflowsI am passionate about building scalable systems, applying modern AI to real enterprise use cases, and enabling engineering teams with future‑ready architectures.
