About Me

Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience designing and building scalable backend systems, specializing in microservices architecture with .NET and MongoDB. Currently working on FleetHours NextGen, a payroll engine for the European logistics sector. My core strength is backend development: building robust APIs, optimizing databases, and architecting distributed microservices. I also contribute to the Angular frontend, enabling me to deliver end-to-end features.

What I Do

  • Backend Development & APIs
  • Software Architecture & Design
  • API Development & Integration
  • Database Design & Optimization
  • Frontend Development (Angular)

My Approach

I believe in writing clean, maintainable code that not only solves problems efficiently but also scales gracefully. Every solution I build is designed with performance, security, and user experience in mind.

Professional Experience

Software Engineer II

Platform Science (previously Trimble)

Apr 2025 - Present

Developing the core of the salary calculation engine for FleetHours NextGen, a .NET/MongoDB backend that computes driver pay for European transport operators: 20 salary rules covering leave, overtime, weekend premiums and expenses. Built the Calculation Management service, which splits payroll runs of 1,000+ employees into Quartz-scheduled batches tracked through Kafka events, so no single customer's run blocks the others. Created a regression harness that replays captured real calculations offline through the engine itself, and drove platform work across 40 repositories: semantic-release versioning, the .NET 10 migration, 16 Snyk vulnerabilities cleared, and test coverage above 80% on five services.

.NET MongoDB Kafka Kubernetes

Software Engineer

Platform Science (previously Trimble)

Jun 2023 - Apr 2025

Built the backend activity data platform behind FleetHours, part of 12 microservices built from scratch: Activity Import, Activity CRUD with a complete audit trail, activity splitting and merging, and Correction APIs. Reworked Activity Import into batched, resumable ingestion after a 600K-activity customer import failed as a whole on every retry. Hardened the shared libraries every service inherits. Started at Trimble's SketchUp division, shipping the SketchUp Diffusion generative-AI extension and contributing to SketchUp Viewer's first Meta Quest release, before moving in May 2024 to the transport division, which Platform Science acquired in Feb 2025.

What Colleagues Say

Recommendations from professionals I've had the pleasure of working with

A

Ajaydharan Mohandoss

Engineering Manager at Trimble

" Bhaskar joined as an intern in my team and worked in Mixed reality product. He learned Unity technology, which is completely a new domain, within a short time and was able to contribute on the library toolkit required for one of our products. He is a quick learner and definitely pushed his limits to solve problems. He is capable of adapting to new technologies and understand any coding language whenever required. In short, Bhaskar is an incredible asset to anyone lucky enough to work with him."

S

Suranjan Goswami

PhD | Senior Research Engineer

" Bhaskar worked as a Software Developer Intern when I joined Trimble and he is an accomplished professional in the MR/AR space. He was the one who showed me the Microsoft HoloLens. With that being said, I am in awe of his development and coding skills. Bhaskar would be an asset to any team he joins, and I wholeheartedly recommend him for a wonderful and successful professional career in the future."
