About Swagath Prakash

Golang Backend Developer with 2+ years of experience designing and building scalable, high-performance microservices and APIs. I primarily work with Go, Chi, gRPC, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker to build reliable, production-ready backend systems.I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, writing clean and efficient code, and optimizing services for performance, scalability, and simplicity. I’ve built REST and gRPC APIs, worked with distributed system patterns, and designed backend components that are easy to maintain and scale.I’m deeply interested in backend architecture, cloud-native development, and building systems that perform well under real-world load. I’m continuously improving my skills and enjoy working with fast-moving teams that care about engineering quality and impact.
