Rahul Purohit
Because of my skills in streaming applications, large-scale data pipelines, optimisation of the resource(compute, storage, network, memory) cost, distributed systems, writing SOLID code, problem solving, algorithms and data structure, I can perform back-end development for the large-scale systems much efficiently than other specialised developers.
Because of my ability to bring customer perspective on the table, eye for value-proposition design, domain driven design skill, I can contribute more than just technical development and have higher impact on the product road-map.
Because of my organisational and interpersonal skills, I can fit in the organisation culture, understand the day-to-day problems in delivering the results. With my ability to influence peers, insisting on greater standards, I can improve my teams culture and standards.
