Mittal Patel

I'm a Technical Lead with 10+ years of experience building and scaling backend systems using Ruby on Rails. I've worked across the full development lifecycle — from designing architecture and writing production-ready code to mentoring engineers and supporting enterprise customers in live environments.


My experience includes building secure, scalable SaaS and enterprise platforms, integrating document management systems like iManage and NetDocuments, and implementing authentication and access control using Azure AD, SSO, and application proxies. I've also worked extensively with AWS services EC2, S3, and RDS.


As a lead, I focus on clean code, SOLID principles, TDD, and practical engineering decisions. I enjoy breaking down complex requirements, reviewing code with an eye on quality and performance, and helping teams grow.


Recently, I've been using AI-assisted development tools like Devin, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot to improve delivery speed, automate testing, and strengthen overall code quality.


I'm currently open to senior backend or technical leadership roles where I can contribute hands-on and help build dependable products at scale.
