Rohit Hegde
Backend Developer at Coupang
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRohit Hegde is a pragmatic backend developer based in Bengaluru with nine years of hands-on experience building scalable backend services and Android applications for high-traffic products. He has driven end-to-end projects solo—designing APIs, optimizing database schemas and caching strategies, and delivering measurable performance gains (e.g., 20% faster responses and 90% test coverage). Rohit helped scale consumer apps to millions of users and played a core role in a million-user messaging product that handled over 2 million monthly letters, while also shipping digital wallet and onboarding flows. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs production-focused engineering with Android fluency and a taste for iterative code reuse (his GitHub quip: “writing garbage code only to recycle them later”). Currently at Coupang after recent backend-focused work, he blends speed of delivery with an emphasis on robust testing and maintainable architecture.
