Hey, I am Rahul

Welcome to my digital space where I build software, explore ideas, document my learning, and share moments beyond code

Portrait of Rahul Gupta, Software Engineer based in Bangalore

I am a Software Engineer at Atlas AI in Bangalore, where I own production microservices (OCR & Address) handling document ingestion for NBFC clients. I build IAM platforms, WebSocket real-time messaging, and move systems from monoliths to distributed async architectures.

I care about clear service boundaries, reliability, and system design. Outside work I’m usually exploring Kafka, sharpening backend fundamentals, or shipping personal experiments — including ConnectU, a Spring Boot microservices social platform.

Originally from Mumbai, currently in Bangalore. When I’m offline you’ll find me on a badminton court, out for a run, with a book, or lost in a good shows.
