"Backend Engineer building resilient APIs and distributed systems"
About
I am Kavya Reddy, a Backend Engineer based in Hyderabad with 5 years of experience crafting robust server-side solutions. I specialize in API design, database optimization, and building distributed systems that scale. My journey began with Laravel and PHP, and I have since expanded into Node.js and Go for high-performance services. I am a strong advocate for test-driven development, CI/CD automation, and infrastructure-as-code. I enjoy solving complex problems and mentoring junior developers in backend best practices.
