Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShobhit Agarwal is a pragmatic software engineer with 9 years of experience focused on resilient, scalable backend architectures and cloud-native systems, currently building at Stripe from Bengaluru. He has a strong track record designing platforms from scratch—most notably leading the backend for HackerRank Engage and delivering a market-fit Candidate Prep Portal within a quarter—while also owning complex migrations like upgrading a monolith RDS from MySQL 5.7 to 8 across multiple services. Comfortable across Node.js/NestJS and Java/Spring stacks, he pairs language-agnostic problem solving with hands-on DevOps experience in Docker, Kubernetes, Airflow and Kafka. He mentors junior engineers, prioritizes aligning features to business and user needs, and favors tool choices driven by design fit rather than personal preference. Outside work he channels the same focus into team sports and adventure pursuits, which he credits for sustaining his collaborative energy and risk-aware decision making.
