About Santosh Kumar

I am a Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience currently focused on Backend Infrastructure at OutSystems. My goal is to ensure that as our products grow, the architecture remains as reliable as it is scalable.The Engineering Journey: As part of the Backend Infrastructure team, I focus on System Reliability and Developer Experience. I build and manage the high-concurrency engines and service-validation frameworks that the entire backend organization relies on to ship code to millions of users.I spend my time solving complex Distributed Systems problems, specifically around how to validate microservice interactions without creating bottlenecks in the deployment pipeline. I am a big advocate for Software Craftsmanship, applying SOLID principles and Clean Architecture to ensure our internal tooling is as resilient as our production services.The Toolkit:Algorithmic Grit: A dedicated problem solver with 800+ DSA problems solved (LeetCode 1600+/ CodeChef 3). I apply this logic to optimize backend performance and navigate the reality of concurrency.Design Discipline: Focused on mastering Low-Level Design (LLD) that is modular, testable, and built for long-term maintenance.Technical Reach: Sharing backend insights and system design learning with a community of people on LinkedIn.I am passionate about moving beyond \"code that works\" to \"code that lasts.\" Let’s connect to talk backend architecture, distributed systems, or the future of scalable infrastructure.
