I’m Samyak, a backend engineer with 5+ years of production experience across Amazon, Allen Digital, Fivetran and Observe.AI.

I’m available for short contract work, paid trials, or part-time backend/applied-AI projects.

Best-fit work:

- backend APIs and integrations

- production hardening for MVPs: auth, DB indexes, logs, secrets, deployment checks

- RAG/document workflows: PDF ingestion, search, answers with sources

- n8n/API automation and internal tools

- debugging slow or fragile services

- AWS/Redis/Postgres/MongoDB/Kubernetes cleanup

Recent signals:

- built backend systems handling 150K+ req/sec

- improved API latency and cache hit rates in production systems

- worked on Kafka/Debezium/Snowflake pipelines and backend automation

- built applied-AI projects around document intelligence and agent workflows

Rate: $45/hr, or fixed paid trial scopes from $150 if the work is narrow.

I’m especially useful if you have a prototype/MVP that works but needs someone to make the backend safer, cleaner, or more production-ready.
