“This was the worst kind of failure: the app was lying to the user, and so was the observability stack.”

# backend is handing back correct data on every request it sees.
# so why isn't the client seeing it?
“Forty minutes defending a backend that wasn't on trial.”
“The whole investigation flipped in ninety seconds.”
Uri _uri(String endpoint) {- return Uri(path: endpoint);+ final parts = endpoint.split('?');+ final query = parts.length > 1+ ? Uri.splitQueryString(parts.last)+ : null;+ return Uri(+ path: parts.first,+ queryParameters: query,+ ); }
“Ten lines. Four months of dormant silent failures.”
“The test harness now captures every /api/* response code per screen. This class of bug cannot hide again.”
“Silent 404s are worse than 500s. A single encoded character broke half a product, and every dashboard kept saying green.”

04 — About
Who I am
Full-stack / product engineer in Chennai. I design, build, deploy, and operate production systems — the full arc, not just the fun parts. Django + AWS + RAG by day, Flutter + CRDT + robot hardware by night.
Known on my team for owning projects independently — requirements, architecture, delivery, on-call, optimization. I'd rather fix the root cause than paper over it.
