Mainak Chhari is a product-focused senior software engineer with 9 years of experience building scalable backend systems and distributed microservices in fast-moving PLG environments. He has led backend functions at startups including Milky Way AI and Aspire, shipping systems that handled high-throughput pipelines (30K+ annotations/day) and notification services delivering 1M+ messages/day. Comfortable across architecture, TDD, and operational maintenance, he combines hands-on development with stakeholder collaboration to turn product requirements into robust B2B and B2C platforms. Based in Bengaluru, he has a track record of owning end-to-end backend lifecycles—from payments and access control to content management and scheduling systems. Not obviously mechanical by training, he leverages an IIT Kanpur engineering background to bring analytical rigor to rapid product iteration.
