Indra Bonia

I'm a software engineer and systems designer with over 15 years of experience building scalable, reliable, and high-performance backend systems. I specialize in designing distributed architectures, solving complex programming challenges, and leading projects from concept to production with a strong focus on performance and maintainability.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked across industries like telecommunications, marketing automation, and SaaS platforms. My core strengths lie in building and scaling systems that process millions of transactions—whether it's bulk messaging pipelines, API gateways, or event-driven automation engines.

I’m proficient in multiple backend technologies including PHP, Go, and Node.js, and have hands-on experience with MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, and AWS. I’ve built APIs that integrate with platforms like Twilio, Infobip, and other SMS/MMS providers, and created real-time dashboards, alerting systems, and automation tools that improve visibility and operational efficiency.

What sets me apart is my product mindset—I don’t just write code; I design systems that solve business problems and scale with growth. I’ve worked independently with startups, founders, and product teams to define architecture, write performant code, and support deployments with confidence.

My recent work includes:

• Designing a multi-threaded SMS processing system that handles 600M+ messages using cron, SQL, and queue workers.
• Building a document automation tool with AI integrations to streamline PDF processing and text-to-speech capabilities.
• Developing internal monitoring tools to capture delivery rates, campaign performance, and user behavior in near real-time.

I’m deeply analytical, detail-oriented, and enjoy taking ownership of critical backend systems. I value clean architecture, meaningful documentation, and clear communication.

While I’m based in India, I’ve successfully collaborated across time zones with distributed teams using async tools like Slack, GitHub, and Trello. I’m comfortable working independently or within agile teams, and I take pride in delivering reliable systems that make an impact.

If you're looking for a backend or systems engineer who understands architecture, performance, and the end-user impact of software decisions, I’d love to bring that mindset to your team.

Let’s connect and build something scalable.
