About

Backend first. Systems that stay calm.

A short look at how I work and what I'm looking for next.

I'm Abhishek N, a backend engineer in India focused on Node.js, NestJS, and distributed systems. I care about reliability, clear service boundaries, and APIs that stay calm under load — from Kafka event flows to Redis caching and production deploys. Open to backend roles, platform work, and selected freelance systems projects.
