GSoC '26 Mentee @ Checkstyle

Who Am I ?
Hi, I’m Monu — a passionate Backend and Distributed Systems Developer specializing in Go and Spring Boot, and a Google Summer of Code (GSoC 2026) Mentee under Checkstyle.
I focus on architecting resilient, high-concurrency event-driven systems using Apache Kafka, Debezium Change Data Capture (CDC), PostgreSQL, Redis, and WebSockets. My technical work spans designing transactional outbox patterns, multi-node WebSocket clusters with Redis Pub/Sub, distributed cache invalidation, and integrating LLMs/RAG pipelines with vector databases like Qdrant.
Currently pursuing my Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering, I actively contribute to open source and national-level hackathons.
Core languages, distributed systems, backend frameworks, and cloud technologies I leverage to build scalable, fault-tolerant infrastructure.
Hands-on software development and open-source engineering contributions.

Distributed systems, event streaming, real-time collaboration engines, and open-source tooling.
Architected a distributed AI interview platform with a high-concurrency Go API Gateway, Python/FastAPI AI Engine, Debezium CDC, Kafka event streaming, multi-node WebSockets, Qdrant RAG evaluation, and OpenTelemetry observability.
Built a distributed real-time collaboration backend using Spring Boot, Java 21 Virtual Threads, LiveKit, multi-node WebSocket scaling with Redis Pub/Sub, CDC full-text search with Debezium & OpenSearch, and two-tier idempotent Kafka ingestion.
Selected for Google Summer of Code 2026 under Checkstyle. Developed OpenRewrite recipes for automated Java code refactoring and modernization, migrating Checkstyle configurations, and automated CI workflows.
A fast, interactive Docker management dashboard for the terminal built to inspect, monitor, and manage containers, images, networks, and volumes seamlessly.
National-level hackathon platform developed with scalable backend architecture, optimized API endpoints, and real-time processing capabilities.
High-throughput backend microservices built with Go for mobile collaborative workflows, featuring low-latency REST endpoints and scalable architecture.
Always open to discuss backend architecture, distributed systems, and engineering roles.
