// software engineer @ 10xscale.ai
I build reliable backend systems with Python, FastAPI, and GCP at 10xscale.ai — production-ready APIs, performance improvements, and scalable cloud workflows for fast-moving product teams.

[01] — About
APIs that don't flake. Deploys that don't drift. Systems that scale without drama.
Currently working as a Software Engineer at 10xscale.ai in Hyderabad, delivering backend features and cloud integrations used in real product workflows. I focus on reducing operational friction, improving API reliability, and building systems that stay maintainable as usage grows.
I specialize in backend development with Python and FastAPI, cloud infrastructure on GCP, and scalable microservices. I prioritize measurable outcomes: faster response times, cleaner deployments, and dependable systems.
Outside work, I enjoy chess, reading about technology, and exploring new product ideas. Continuous learning helps me bring clearer decisions, better trade-offs, and stronger collaboration into engineering work.
