Solution Architect — enterprise systems across fintech · healthcare · SaaS · 25+ years

I design systems that survive contact with production: clear service boundaries, honest trade-offs, and architectures a team can actually operate. I care less about the newest framework and more about whether a decision still looks sound in eighteen months.

• Architecture & design — distributed systems, API gateways, service decomposition, data-flow and integration design across .NET and Node.js ecosystems.
• Platform & delivery — containerised stacks, CI/CD on Azure DevOps, infrastructure as repeatable, idempotent automation.
• AI-assisted engineering — LLM integration, RAG pipelines, and agentic developer tooling applied to real delivery, not demos.
• Technical leadership — translating ambiguous requirements into defensible architecture, and mentoring teams toward it.

I publish on architecture, AI-assisted development, and the engineering decisions behind them at blog.manjunathhk.in — written personally, at a steady cadence.

• Building a fully offline, idempotent local development environment (PostgreSQL, SQL Server/DACPAC, Hasura, local auth).
• Running a self-hosted homelab for private LLM inference and AI tooling experiments.
• Exploring agentic developer workflows and where they genuinely improve delivery — and where they don't.
