Ashutosh Kumar
Backend & Data Engineer
Python · ETL · LLM Integration
I build the systems that move, shape, and reason over data at scale — backend services, ETL pipelines, and LLM-powered automation for analytics-heavy products. Based in Kolkata, India.
Backend Systems
Led the migration of a tightly coupled monolith into a modular, multi-tenant SaaS backend on Django/DRF and FastAPI — cutting database query latency 50% through indexing, caching, and query optimization.
Data Engineering
Architected the ingestion and transformation backbone — Argo Workflows and BigQuery pipelines turning raw multi-brand data into standardized analytics tables that power reporting and KPIs.
AI Integration
Built an LLM-powered scoring engine on the OpenAI API that evaluates semantic alignment across 100K+ intent signals in production — plus LLM-backed automation wired directly into core backend services.
