BACKEND & PLATFORM ENGINEERBengaluru, India

Behind the scenes.
Beyond the
happy path.

I’m Adarsh. I build backend platforms that make complex things work — from cloud infrastructure to the workflows that keep it moving.

THE WAY I THINK

Good systems
expect the unexpected.

A request. A retry. A failure.
Every path deserves a plan.

Choose a scenario. Follow the request.

01 / SELECTED WORK

From a problem
to a working system.

A few things I’ve built.
The interesting part is how they work.

PERSONAL PROJECT01

Job Radar

A persistent opportunity pipeline that checks the evidence, tracks what it has seen, and sends useful alerts.

PERSONAL PROJECT02

Discussify

A community platform connecting posts, messaging, and notifications through real-time events.

Foodly

The API layer behind a food delivery experience. Authentication, user management, and push notifications, connected.

02 / EXPERIENCE

Built in production.
Learned by doing.

From mobile interfaces
to the infrastructure underneath.

Specialist Programmer

Building enterprise cloud control planes with TypeScript, NestJS, Node.js, and event-driven services.

01
Capacity with guardrails

Quota reservation, release, and capacity-aware placement across compute, memory, and storage.

02
Lifecycle reliability

Idempotent resource creation, asynchronous state reconciliation, and recovery from partial provisioning failures.

03
Clarity across services

Readable audit trails, backward-compatible migrations, and tests across APIs, services, repositories, and components.

MOBILE

Three things I design for.

MY ENGINEERING APPROACH
01 / POLICY CORRECTNESS

Protect the invariant.

Capacity checks account for work in progress. Reserve before provisioning, release on failure, and make placement decisions with the whole picture.

02 / STATE CORRECTNESS

Make every outcome explicit.

Repeated messages and partial failures are part of the design. Use idempotency, reconciliation, and readable audit trails to keep the system understandable.

03 / SAFE EVOLUTION

Move forward with history intact.

Standardize contracts with legacy fallback reads and staged adoption. New resource operations can evolve while historical records stay usable.

03 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Curious about the why.
Careful with the how.

I’m a backend and platform engineer who likes understanding what happens after the API returns — the events, the state transitions, the retries, and the things that can go wrong.

My work spans enterprise infrastructure and personal automation. I care about clear contracts, useful observability, and leaving a system easier to reason about than I found it. I also help peers reason through edge cases, failure paths, and test expectations.

I also use AI-assisted engineering and MCP integrations for planning, implementation, and review, with testing and human judgment at the center.
