About

Chandrasekharan M is a Senior Software Engineer at Zipstack with a passion for learning new technologies and solving complex real-world problems. With over 2.69 years of relevant experience, he has worked with a range of programming languages and frameworks, including C++, Python, Java, Spring, React Native, and more. Chandrasekharan's experience includes building an in-memory framework with a team of 8 using C++ and Python to stream and process parquet files, which stands at the core of a 2-year-long refactoring project used by 50+ developers. He has also scaled the framework to process over 10 PB of data per month on cloud (Azure) and on-prem servers, set up unit tests for the framework from scratch, and improved read performance of parquet using indexes and metadata. In addition, Chandrasekharan has analyzed performance and memory issues using tools like Valgrind's Memcheck and Callgrind. He has also built an administrative utility tool that monitors Kafka clusters using the Kafka Admin API, using Spring and ReactJS (Kendo React Components) to build a web dashboard during his internship at Nielsen. Chandrasekharan holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science from SSN College of Engineering, where he graduated in 2020. He also attended Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan, KK Nagar, in 2016. As a creative individual with a flair for learning, Chandrasekharan is interested in building applications that scale and solving complex real-world problems. His tech stack includes Software Engineering, Python, Spring, Azure, Kafka, Java, React Native, and Web development.
