Hello, I'm Shawn!
I am an engineer and a perpetual learner who loves building stuff with code.
I live in Bangalore and work at Tetrate on the Maintainability team.
Tetrate is a startup based out of Silicon Valley, working on the next generation of networking services using Istio, Envoy and a few of the open-source projects defining the next generation of network, authorization and security for Fortune 500 companies.
Previously, I worked at a fintech startup called Juspay as an SDE working on highly available, high traffic, payment processing backend APIs (Purescript, Node.js, Haskell)
I also setup/managed parts of its cloud infrastructure (Istio service mesh, Kubernetes, Elasticsearch, Fluentd, Envoy Proxy, Nginx, Prometheus, Grafana, Jenkins, Sentry, AWS)
My interests
I enjoy working on distributed systems, and tackling problems related to scalability and reliability.
In my free time I experiment with various programming languages/paradigms, or work to improve my understanding of the tools/protocols/frameworks that I work with.
While my primary focus is on backends, distributed systems & infrastructure, I'm a generalist and I try not to limit myself to any specific language/tool/framework. I have also built frontends & mobile apps in the past
Outside of programming rockets and space excite me, and I'm a very big fan of SpaceX
I also like reading about history & finance.
