Scalable Systems
About Me
Hi, I'm Suraj Ambekar, a Full Stack Engineer focused on building scalable backend systems and real-world products. I work extensively with Node.js, TypeScript, and React to design performant APIs and production-grade applications.
Currently working as a Founding Engineer, I’ve built products like FoxReport and FoxBreach from scratch. My work involves system design, multi-tenant architecture, background job processing, and integrating complex workflows across services.
I enjoy solving complex engineering problems and building systems that are reliable, scalable, and easy to extend. My focus is always on writing clean, maintainable code that delivers real impact.
