I build reliable backend systems.
Hi, I'm Sharvil — a backend engineering lead based in Los Angeles with 8 years of experience building production systems across APIs, notifications, payments, experimentation, recommendations, and event-driven infrastructure.
Focus areas
- / 01
Backend Systems
Designing and operating production APIs and services that stay reliable, observable, and maintainable as they grow.
- / 02
Event-Driven Infrastructure
Building event-driven, serverless pipelines that process high volumes of work with clear retries, idempotency, and ownership.
- / 03
Product Platforms
Backend platforms for payments, experimentation, notifications, and recommendations that product teams build on.
- / 04
Engineering Quality
Small reviewable PRs, strong code review, production discipline, and senior engineers modeling the bar.
