About

Professional summary

I am a Lead Senior C++ Developer with more than 16 years of experience building high-performance system software for payments, telecom, and oil and gas domains. I specialize in modern C++, object-oriented design, STL, multithreading, synchronization, memory management, and performance optimization.

I lead requirements analysis, solution design, development, debugging, and delivery of complex software systems on Linux and Windows. I have hands-on experience with C++11, C++14, and C++17, as well as diagnosing critical production issues using tools such as GDB, Valgrind, and memory profiling techniques.

In my recent work, I have led payment-platform modernization, transaction reversal capabilities, RBI-compliant cardholder data security initiatives, and communication infrastructure enhancements. I focus on reliable, scalable solutions that reduce technical debt, improve system stability, and minimize downtime in mission-critical environments.

I have also delivered C++ and Qt-based solutions for drilling, reservoir analysis, data visualization, and Monte Carlo simulation in the oil and gas industry. My background includes web service integration, database connectivity, networking, communication protocols, and enterprise telecom applications serving millions of subscribers.

I enjoy leading and mentoring engineering teams, conducting technical and code reviews, and promoting software quality practices. I work effectively with architects, product owners, clients, and stakeholders in Agile and SAFe environments while remaining actively involved in coding and technical problem solving.
