backend engineer based in Kolkata. I build systems that move data at scale — pipelines, integrations, the infrastructure that runs quietly until it doesn't.
by day I'm a senior engineer at Videoverse, where I own the partner integration layer for Magnifi — the APIs, metadata, and event pipelines that connect us to broadcasters across Europe and the US. outside work I build my own products and do the whole thing myself, down to payments and servers.
