About Kaushal Kumar

I am a backend-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience designing, building, and scaling high-performance systems across SaaS, e-commerce and cloud platforms.At Microsoft, I have designed scalable APIs, worked on LLM-based project, Gen AI, Agentic AI, modernized legacy into modular framework, and delivered multi-region deployments with reliability and automation. I take ownership from requirements to on-call operations, while mentoring engineers and collaborating with multiple partner teams to deliver consistent, high-impact solutions across services.Previously at Flipkart, I contributed to the Cart & Checkout service handling 20k+ QPS, driving core platform enhancements that improved checkout conversion, reduced latency, and ensured resilience at scale during Big Billion Days.My earlier roles at Wingify, Juggernaut Books, and Eazydiner gave me end-to-end ownership of payment systems, user flows, and customer-facing applications — including building entire platforms from scratch.My toolkit spans C#.Net, C++, Powershell, Azure, Python, Java, Flask, Django, Dropwizard, Redis, Kafka, SQL, and modern CI/CD practices. I focus on solving complex problems through strong design (HLD/LLD), data-driven decisions, and scalable architecture.I occasionally write about engineering practices and industry trends on LinkedIn.
