Summary
Shantnu Garg is a Lead Engineer based in Bengaluru with 8 years of hands-on experience building and hardening full-stack systems using MERN, Python, C/C++, and JavaScript. He specializes in performance tuning and reliability—examples include a 60% CPU improvement via Pyroscope integration and large memory reductions and database optimizations that reclaimed hundreds of gigabytes. He has led teams, run RCA processes for production incidents, and moved critical infra like caches to standalone clusters (Hazelcast) and observability stacks with OpenTelemetry, Tempo, and Grafana. Comfortable across FE/BE, real-time sockets, and deployment pipelines, he also ships integrations with messaging platforms and SSO solutions. A background in competitive programming and frequent low-level optimizations gives him a knack for finding non-obvious bottlenecks and security loopholes. He combines pragmatic engineering with product-facing communication, helping teams turn reliability work into measurable business impact.
