About Me
Hi there! I'm Lakshay Mahajan, a passionate Backend Developer who architects scalable, production-ready systems that power real-world applications. Currently, my authentication microservice serves three live platforms, handling everything from OAuth 2.0 flows to AWS-powered email pipelines.
I specialize in building robust APIs with Express.js, MongoDB, and cloud services, while following industry best practices like rate limiting, comprehensive logging, and Docker deployments. Beyond coding, I share knowledge through my newsletter at newsletter.lakshaymahajan.com, breaking down complex topics like OAuth, SSL, and payment systems for fellow developers.
From collaborating with senior developers at Smart India Hackathon to designing full-stack platforms like KnowledgeStore, I'm driven by curiosity and the challenge of solving complex problems through clean, efficient code.
