Hi, I'm Yunus πŸ‘‹

πŸŽ“ Computer Science student
πŸ’» Backend & Systems Engineering | Distributed Systems | Open Source

I build reliable, high-performance backend systems with a focus on concurrency, networking, and data consistency.
My experience spans low-level systems work (Rust/Go, async runtimes, TCP) and production backend services (Java/Python, distributed APIs, caching).


πŸš€ Current Work

Redis but Brown

Systems Engineering | Rust, Tokio, TCP

  • Building a multi-threaded, Redis-compatible in-memory key-value store from scratch.
  • Implementing the RESP protocol over raw TCP.
  • Designing concurrent state management using Arc<RwLock> with a focus on correctness and throughput.

PriceByte (In Progress)

Backend Engineering | Java Spring Boot, Python, PostgreSQL, Docker

  • Scalable grocery aggregation backend combining automated ingestion and external APIs.
  • Handles 50k+ product records with strict ACID guarantees.
  • Uses Redis caching to reduce API latency by ~40% under load.

🧠 Systems & Backend Focus

  • Concurrency & Async: Rust (Tokio), Go (goroutines)
  • Networking: TCP servers, custom protocols, WebSockets
  • Distributed Systems: caching, data consistency, fault tolerance
  • Datastores: PostgreSQL, Redis

πŸ› οΈ Technical Stack

  • Languages: Java, Python, Rust, Go, C/C++, TypeScript
  • Backend: Spring Boot, FastAPI, Node.js, gRPC, WebSocket
  • Infra & Systems: Docker, Redis, Kafka, Linux (NixOS), AWS
  • Tooling: Git, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), Terraform

πŸ“ˆ Problem Solving & Competitive Programming

Recently started competitive programming to strengthen algorithmic fundamentals and speed:
