I’m Ram Mohan Kunwar, a Technical Lead and backend-focused software engineer with 6+ years of experience building cloud-native, high-throughput systems. I specialize in Python, AWS, serverless architectures, and distributed systems, working at the intersection of engineering depth and product impact.
I am a Technical Lead and Senior Software Engineer based in New Delhi, India, with a strong background in backend engineering, cloud architecture, and data-intensive systems. Over the years, I’ve worked across startups and enterprise environments, contributing to systems that handle millions of events, real-time device data, and mission-critical telecom workloads.
My core strength lies in Python-based backend development using frameworks such as FastAPI, Django, Flask, and AWS Chalice, combined with deep hands-on experience in AWS services including Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Kinesis, and S3. I design systems with a strong focus on scalability, fault tolerance, observability, and cost efficiency.
Currently working as a Technical Lead, I am responsible not only for implementation but also for system design, architecture decisions, code quality, and mentoring junior engineers. I enjoy translating vague business requirements into well-defined technical solutions, ensuring they hold up in real-world production environments.
Beyond my day job, I actively explore AI/ML systems, data platforms, and product-driven engineering, with a long-term goal of building scalable products and independent revenue streams.
Design and build high-performance REST APIs. Python-first development with FastAPI, Django, Flask. Authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and API security. SQL & NoSQL database design.
Serverless and microservices architectures on AWS. Event-driven systems using Kinesis and message queues. Infrastructure automation using Terraform. High-availability setups.
ETL pipelines for telecom and operational data. Large-scale event ingestion and processing. Reporting systems and data aggregation. Pandas, NumPy, and analytics tooling.
Architecture reviews and system design. Mentoring junior and mid-level engineers. Code reviews and engineering best practices. Bridging product requirements with execution.
Leading backend and cloud architecture for telecom and IoT platforms. Owning system design, performance optimization, and team mentorship.
Built distributed backend systems processing large-scale device, SIM, and location data. Focused on AWS serverless services and high-throughput APIs.
Worked on backend APIs, ETL pipelines, and analytics platforms for logistics and enterprise clients.
My technical stack is centered around Python and AWS, with a strong emphasis on building scalable, maintainable, and observable systems.
I believe great engineering is not just about writing code — it’s about designing systems that survive real-world traffic, failures, and change. I value clean architecture, pragmatic decision-making, and continuous learning. I’m especially interested in roles that combine deep technical challenges with long-term product ownership.
