Backend & Infrastructure Software Engineer 👋

🔗 Portfolio: https://sanket-portfolio-phi.vercel.app/

Hi, I’m Sanket Baviskar a Backend & Infrastructure Software Engineer with experience in building scalable, fault-tolerant backend services and distributed systems.

I specialize in designing and operating cloud-native APIs, data pipelines, and infrastructure services that are reliable under load and easy for developers to build on. I’ve worked in fast-paced product environments, owning systems end-to-end from architecture and implementation to deployment, monitoring, and iteration.

🔧 What I Build

I enjoy working on backend systems where correctness, performance, and reliability matter:

• Distributed backend services (stateless APIs, async workers, control planes)
• High-throughput APIs with rate limiting, caching, and request orchestration
• Cloud-native infrastructure using containers, CI/CD, and managed services
• Data-intensive systems (event ingestion, pipelines, vector search)
• Observability & reliability (metrics, logging, SLO-driven design)

---

🏗️ Technical Focus Areas

• Backend & Systems

  • REST / gRPC API design
  • Concurrency, async processing, and backpressure
  • Caching strategies and performance tuning (p95 / p99)
  • Multi-tenant architectures and data isolation

• Distributed Systems

  • Fault tolerance and graceful degradation
  • Idempotency, retries, and consistency trade-offs
  • Rate limiting, quotas, and traffic shaping
  • Event-driven and message-based architectures

• Cloud & Infrastructure

  • Containerized services (Docker)
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • AWS-based deployments
  • Production readiness and scalability considerations

---

🚀 Selected Projects

• Multi-Tenant AI Knowledge Platform (RAG) Designed and built a backend platform supporting document ingestion, vector search, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), with tenant-scoped data isolation and scalable API services.

• Distributed Rate Limiting Service Implemented multiple industry-standard rate limiting algorithms (Token Bucket, Sliding Window, Fixed Window) using Redis for distributed state coordination, optimized for high-throughput traffic.

(More details and architecture breakdowns available in the repositories.)

🎯 What I’m Looking For

I’m actively seeking Backend / Platform / Infrastructure Software Engineer (SDE) roles where I can:

• Build and scale core backend services
• Work on distributed systems and infrastructure
• Solve reliability, performance, and scalability problems at real-world scale
