About

I’m a software engineer passionate about databases and distributed systems. I graduated from the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad, and have spent most of my career working deep in the internals of large-scale data infrastructure.

I joined Amazon in 2012, where I spent nearly ten years working on database systems at scale — tackling problems in replication, consistency, and storage. That work led to a patent, Data Replication Without In-Place Tombstones (US 11853321), for a novel approach to database replication that eliminates the cost of in-place tombstone records.

I’m currently at Uber in Seattle, where I continue to work on database infrastructure — building systems that are fast, reliable, and built to last.
