SmartPharma360

Full pharma supply chain SaaS — Manufacturing · C&F Distribution · Retail

Platform Engineering

The Problem

The pharma supply chain ran on disconnected legacy systems. Distributors, C&F agents, and retail pharmacies couldn't share inventory data, reconcile billing in real time, or meet GST compliance requirements without manual intervention.

The Solution

Designed and built the entire platform from architecture to deployment — multi-tenant data model with strict tenant isolation, a financial-grade billing engine, Azure Service Bus for POS payment processing and async jobs, and 30+ infrastructure nodes managed across production, staging, and UAT.

The Outcome

10M+ invoices processed across 200+ businesses and 80+ locations. GST-compliant billing with zero compliance failures. Platform became the operational backbone for multiple pharmacy chains.

Azure Service Bus Pipeline

Financial-grade message bus — POS payments · Inward orders · Internal jobs

Distributed Systems

The Problem

Live POS terminals processing payments needed guaranteed delivery. A dropped message meant a lost transaction, inventory mismatch, or billing error. REST calls were brittle under burst load and couldn't survive partial failures.

The Solution

Designed a dedicated pipeline on Azure Service Bus with separate namespaces per concern — POS payments, inward orders, and internal background jobs. Dead-letter queues, automatic retry with exponential backoff, and idempotent consumers ensuring exactly-once processing regardless of delivery count.

The Outcome

Zero transaction loss across all live POS terminals. System handles payment bursts during peak hours without manual intervention or data reconciliation after incidents.

PillPlus

B2C medicine delivery — AI search · Real-time tracking · Payments

Full-Stack Product

The Problem

Medicine delivery in India lacked a reliable consumer experience. Customers couldn't search meaningfully across brands and generics, track orders in real time, or trust the payment flow.

The Solution

Built the entire platform end-to-end — Next.js storefront, ElysiaJS/Bun API, AI-powered Typesense search across a large medicine catalog, PayU payment gateway, and BullMQ workers for reliable async order processing with retry and dead-letter handling.

The Outcome

Live B2C platform with sub-200ms medicine search, real-time GPS order tracking, and reliable PayU payment processing — built and shipped end-to-end.

About

I'm a Senior Software Engineer based in Hyderabad, India — 10+ years building production SaaS from the first commit through to infrastructure management. No handoffs, no silos.

At Risurge Technologies, I own the complete engineering stack for a multi-product pharma-tech ecosystem: backend systems, frontend applications, cloud infrastructure, observability, and AI integration — with no separate DevOps, QA, or data team.

I specialize in distributed systems reliability, platform engineering at scale, and integrating LLMs into real production workflows — the work that keeps systems up and makes them smarter.

I'm most effective in environments where engineers are trusted to own things end-to-end and technical decisions are made by people who have to live with them.
