Top SchoolShourie Ganguly is a Senior Software Engineer based in Bengaluru with 4 years of hands-on experience building scalable microservices and integrations using Go, gRPC, and Node.js.

Comfortable across NoSQL and MySQL datastores, Aerospike caching, RabbitMQ pub/sub and AMQP, he also builds developer ergonomics like logging, testing and CI tooling. He’s driven by experimentation with new technologies and pragmatic engineering trade-offs, often tackling compatibility and scalability challenges in production. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic problem-solver who pairs deep backend focus with attention to observability and reliability.
