About Sanjay Kumar Mucharla

Scaling Ideas into High-Performance Software | Full-Stack Engineer | AWS | MicroservicesI thrive at the intersection of scalability, performance, and user experience, where I engineer high-impact applications that power millions of transactions daily. With 4+ years of experience, I specialize in backend architectures, microservices, and cloud-based solutions—turning complex problems into seamless digital experiences.At Uber, I built a real-time ride-matching system handling 10M+ daily transactions, leveraging Java, Spring Boot, WebSockets, and Redis to achieve sub-5-second trip allocations—even at peak loads. At Airbnb, I designed a high-availability payment gateway with Spring Boot & PostgreSQL, improving uptime and scaling to 100K+ daily bookings. I also implemented a real-time chat system for hosts & guests using WebSockets & MongoDB, boosting engagement rates. Key Highlights: Optimized Uber\'s pricing system, reducing fare discrepancies across global regions Designed serverless microservices on AWS Lambda & S3, cutting infra costs by 30% Built an AI-powered Smart Web Fill app, reducing manual data entry errors by 70% Led Agile teams, improving deployment efficiency by 40% using Jenkins & KubernetesI don’t just write code—I architect systems that impact millions.

Experience

1. Software Developer

   Uber

   Jul 2024 — Present · US

   Developed a fare optimization system using Java, Spring Boot, and MySQL, reducing pricing discrepancies across regions by implementing real-time algorithms that process over 10 million daily transactions.• Engineered a ride-matching service using WebSockets, Node.js, and Redis, enabling sub-5-second response times for trip allocations during high traffic.• Automated deployment pipelines with Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes, reducing build and release times by 30 hours monthly.• Designed a driver activity dashboard using React.js, Redux, and Tailwind CSS, which improved driver engagement by providing real-time insights into earnings and trip statistics.• Improved backend resiliency with Kafka for message queuing, ensuring smooth data communication between services during load surges.• Migrated critical modules to AWS Lambda and S3, enhancing system scalability and cutting server costs for peak usage periods.
