Experience

1. Cloud Software Engineer

   Intel

   Jun 2022 — Present

   Designed & implemented microservices for out of band solutions based on solid principles & hexagonal architecture. Decoupled components from core logic, standardized architecture thereby speeding development times by 50% & overall testability/readability. e.g: http adapters could be replaced by kafka adapters & test adapters. Scaled solution to support 250K concurrent TCP connections using performance optimizations & NGINX load balancing strategies for Kong proxy & horizontal pod scaling of upstream services. Advocated & led solution adopting Network load balancer over a classic LB to support scaling of requests at Layer 4. Harnessed AWS cloud front to speed up response times for customers by enabling edge caching of core static website components, customer artifacts from S3 buckets & API gateway responses. Conceptualized and implemented an efficient & scalable event driven backend processing system for finding CVEs in customer PC manifests using AWS SQS, EventBridge, KEDA. Further, extended to create a customer notification system for vulnerabilities using a solution level kafka auditing system. Mentored peers & advocated for a broad testing strategy involving functional, acceptance testing for state based flows, cloud scale integration testing in EKS cluster using terratest & pytest. Reduced cloud & CI/CD dependence, sped up development times by leveraging docker compose & AWS emulators like localstack for local testing & pre-commit hooks. Reduced time to market by leveraging cloud infra automation & provisioning tools like Terraform, Helm & Ansible.
