Software Engineer II @ Belden · Go · Kubernetes · AWS
I'm a backend engineer building reliable APIs, cloud-native services, and tools that make developers' lives easier. At Belden India, I work on EdgeService Gateway (ESGW) application orchestration.
My day-to-day work centers on Go, Kubernetes, and AWS. Outside work, I explore networking, media tooling, peer-to-peer communication, and deployment infrastructure through personal projects.

BACKEND = Go / microservices / API performance
PLATFORM = Kubernetes / AWS / containers / GitOps
SYSTEMS = concurrency / networking / async processing
PRINCIPLES = readable code / observable services / reliable delivery
Selected results from my production engineering work:
| Signal | Result | Work behind it |
|---|---|---|
p99 API latency |
60% reduction | PostgreSQL query optimization and Redis caching |
database CPU |
70% → 20% | More efficient queries and database access patterns |
service availability |
99.9% | Monitoring, operational improvements, and proactive troubleshooting |
orchestration APIs |
15+ Go APIs | Cloud-native application management |
I also work with Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry for observability, and Helm, ArgoCD, and CI/CD pipelines for application deployment and lifecycle management.
Desktop-first media discovery and playback. A dedicated media application exploring extraction, playback workflows, local processing, and integrations with external services.
focus: desktop architecture · media workflows · cross-platform development
Local media processing in the browser. A privacy-focused project exploring image and video operations on the user's device, reducing the need to send media to a server.
focus: browser APIs · client-side execution · image and video processing
A Go-native media extraction and download toolkit. An experimental project inspired by yt-dlp, exploring extensible extractors, stream selection, download orchestration, and FFmpeg post-processing.
stack: Go · HTTP · FFmpeg
focus: retries · cancellation · resumable downloads · CLI tooling
Peer-to-peer file transfer across devices. A networking project exploring encrypted communication, peer connectivity, and chunked, resumable transfers so interrupted work can continue.
stack: Go · Swift · WebRTC · TCP · AES-GCM
focus: peer discovery · ICE / STUN / TURN · transfer state management
Share a keyboard and mouse across computers on a LAN. A cross-platform project exploring low-latency input forwarding, device discovery, connection liveness, and recovery after disconnects.
stack: Go · TCP · UDP · macOS · Windows
focus: input handling · peer discovery · reconnection · latency instrumentation
A Go-native, self-hosted deployment platform. Inspired by Vercel, this project explores the path from source code to running containers: webhook-triggered builds, background jobs, and deployment orchestration with hookd and buildd services.
stack: Go · Gin · PostgreSQL / pgx · Redis · Asynq · Docker
focus: build pipelines · container lifecycle · deployment state tracking
