ABOUT GAURAV HARITAS

Software Development Engineer-II with 2.5+ years of experience in backend development and data engineering, focused on building scalable, secure, and high-performance systems. I specialize in Go and Python, with strong expertise in designing production-grade APIs, distributed systems, and robust data pipelines.In my current role, I work extensively on backend systems and data architecture, owning end-to-end development including database design, business logic, and system scalability using PostgreSQL and Elasticsearch. I have led the design and optimization of data ingestion and ETL pipelines, significantly improving data quality, reliability, and processing efficiency in production environments.Previously at Trademo, I contributed to Sanctions and Trade Compliance products by developing scalable backend features and APIs. I re-architected ETL pipelines to improve data accuracy by 70%, implemented end-to-end data encryption for enhanced security, and built an IP-based validation system that prevented up to 95% of false user access.I also bring experience in mentoring engineers and leading data architecture initiatives, enabling teams to build independent and scalable workflows. My technical stack includes AWS, GCP, Airflow, Redis, and modern monitoring and logging tools.Additionally, I have exposure to ML model deployments and RAG-based systems, integrating AI capabilities into backend-driven applications. My academic and project experience in machine learning and computer vision further complements my backend expertise.I am interested in solving complex engineering problems across backend systems, data platforms, and AI-driven applications, with a strong focus on scalability, performance, and real-world impact.
