Backend systems that don't fall over at 2 a.m.

I'm Nagaraj Neelam — a Software engineer building scalable backends and AI-agent systems, four internships and a lot of production bugs into the craft.

About

I'm a backend engineer who's spent the last year across four different production codebases — enterprise data pipelines, decentralized health records, serverless AWS infrastructure, and AI-agent platforms, mostly figuring out how to keep them running.

Lately most of my work sits where backend systems meet LLMs: multi-agent architectures, retrieval pipelines, and the unglamorous plumbing auth, fallbacks, rate limits, that makes an AI product reliable enough to actually ship.

Outside of internships I build my own things ~ a CFO copilot, a backend scaffolding CLI, a multilingual healthcare voice assistant and compete in hackathons, a habit that's landed a few finalist placements along the way.

Experience

Four internships, one thread — backend systems built to hold up under real data, real users, and real failure modes.

Intern – Delivery

Hyderabad, India

Virtusa Consulting Services Pvt. Ltd

Built a full-stack market intelligence platform (FastAPI + Next.js) with a 7-stage async pipeline aggregating data from 9+ external source families — news, financial, social, GitHub, and security — into LLM-synthesized, citation-backed PDF reports.

Built a multi-layered prompt safety system for risk-scoring and injection detection, plus a 4-tier database fallback (Supabase → Postgres → SQLite) that improved resilience during LLM and external API failures.
