Hi, I'm

Ashish Kumar.

Senior Software Engineer

Backend engineer with 6 years across Oracle, Highspot, and ABCFitness. I build APIs, data pipelines, and AI-powered features for enterprise products — focused on things that are reliable, fast, and actually useful.

// about

Who I Am

I've spent the last 6 years writing backend code for enterprise products. At Oracle, that meant building REST APIs for supply chain management — handling large file attachments at sub-300ms latency, optimizing database queries, and shipping features used by enterprise customers daily.

At Highspot, I shifted toward AI-driven features — architecting data layers for document parsing, generating slide-level embeddings for content similarity, and driving AI tooling adoption (Copilot, Cursor) across the team that cut turnaround time by 75%. Currently at ABCFitness, I'm building B2B healthcare integrations with Spring, Oracle DB, and Kafka.

I studied at NIT Warangal (8.65 GPA), enjoy competitive programming (CodeChef global rank 51), and when I'm not coding, I'm probably playing table tennis.
