About: Senior SWE with 8+ years across Amazon, JPMorgan Chase, and PayPal/Venmo. I build data pipelines, distributed systems, and backend infrastructure — mostly Python and AWS. I gravitate toward work with real-world stakes: warehouse safety systems, trade settlement pipelines, payments infrastructure. Currently building tooling to query New Jersey transit data with LLMs. Looking for mid/senior backend or data engineering roles at companies where the engineering touches something real - preferably Fintech, logistics or urban spaces. NYC-based, US citizen.

Hello! My names Akshay and I'm a senior engineer, 8+ years across Amazon, JPMorgan, and PayPal/Venmo. Strong in data pipelines, backend systems, and AWS. Have a Masters in Urban Science — genuinely interested in work at the intersection of data and the physical world: cities, logistics, infrastructure, mobility. Currently exploring AI tooling and Rust.
