About Me

I build backend systems — not just UIs.

I'm Tahmeer Pasha, a Backend Software Engineer at Webknot Technologies, Bengaluru. I design and implement production-grade systems — microservices, event-driven pipelines, and cloud-native architectures.

My work spans Spring Boot microservices handling 10k+ events/day, AWS Lambda pipelines processing over a million records per run, and Elasticsearch search systems operating at sub-200ms latency — all running in live production.

I'm actively strengthening DSA and Low-Level Design skills, targeting SDE roles at product-based companies.
