Aum Tamboli
I'm a backend-focused engineer with a strong interest in distributed systems, infrastructure, and building things that scale. I love working on hard problems in systems design — from distributed compute platforms to high-throughput data pipelines.

Experience
• Reduced search latency from 2s to under 500ms across semantic + fuzzy queries, by redesigning PostgreSQL indexing strategy and building a custom search engine around it.
• Cut LLM API costs and improve extraction accuracy, by replacing Gemini-based OCR parsing with a custom regex parser — removing the dependency entirely.
• Improved data pipeline reliability to ingest 25,000 tender records/day into production PostgreSQL, by building and operating fault-tolerant Python scrapers across multiple portals.
• Enabled targeted outreach at scale by designing an automated WhatsApp delivery system using queues and background workers with dynamic business rules.
