Hi, I'm Venkata Dhanush Kakarlamudi

Backend & Systems Software Engineer specializing in distributed architectures, high-throughput pipelines, API design, and database query optimization.

I focus on building production-oriented backend software with an emphasis on low-latency data access, background queue processing, multi-layer caching, and microservices design.

Work Experience

Software Engineer Intern — StudyCubs (Dec 2025 – Jan 2026)

  • Architected a high-throughput data platform for 5K+ users, offloading real-time webhooks and 180-day batch syncs via RabbitMQ across 6 parallel worker streams.
  • Reduced database lookup complexity from $O(N)$ table scans to $O(\log N)$ index seeks using a composite B-tree index on user and date fields for atomic upserts.
  • Engineered fault-tolerant ingestion pipelines via 500-item chunked bulk upserts and nested transactions to isolate data failures and prevent full batch rollbacks.

Software Engineer Intern — AK Capital Advisors (Jun 2025 – Aug 2025)

  • Designed 30+ credit and loan REST APIs, implementing strict financial domain validation via Pydantic schemas and OAuth2/JWT authentication dependencies.
  • Executed 9 database schema migrations across 15 relational tables and 2 views using Alembic, maintaining strict data integrity via foreign keys and unique constraints.
  • Standardized API error semantics by deploying a centralized error catalog with explicit transactional rollbacks to preserve database state during failures.

Open Source Contributions

  • PR #3750 — Hardened token validation using thread-safe deep-copy model replication for identity-claim propagation.
  • PR #3768 — Resolved an OpenAPI-to-JSON Schema nullable/enum mismatch affecting autogenerated clients.
