Hi there, I'm Amit Kanswal πŸ‘‹

Senior Software Engineer β€” Developer Platforms & DevX


πŸš€ About Me

I'm a Senior Software Engineer at Contentstack with 6+ years building developer platforms, SDKs, micro-frontends and marketplace integrations at scale.

  • πŸ—οΈ Founding member of the Developer Hub & Marketplace micro-frontend rebuild β€” a platform serving 100,000+ daily active users
  • ⚑ Cut application startup from 13s β†’ 150ms through shared dependency resolution and host initialization, not code splitting alone
  • 🧰 Owned the App SDK β€” the integration contract every third-party app on the platform is built against
  • 🌐 Maintained 14 reference starter websites across React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, Nuxt, Astro, SvelteKit and Gatsby β€” one accepted into a major framework vendor's official examples collection
  • πŸ” Designed a secure API proxy so marketplace apps reach third-party APIs without credentials ever touching the browser
  • πŸ§ͺ Built end-to-end testing for sandboxed iframe apps from scratch β€” no existing pattern for it
  • πŸ›°οΈ Led the ecosystem rollout across 5 regions and 3 cloud providers
  • πŸ‘¨β€πŸ« Mentor and code reviewer β€” 891 pull requests reviewed
  • πŸ”— Portfolio: amitkanswal.github.io

πŸ† Highlights & Achievements

  • πŸ—οΈ Founding member of the Developer Hub & Marketplace MFE initiative β€” carried it from early architecture through general availability, with independent deployments per surface and a separate release track so the migration never blocked delivery
  • 🧰 Owned the App SDK end to end β€” design, implementation, documentation, releases and developer support, adding capability across four escalating phases without breaking a single existing integration
  • πŸ”Œ Built a general-purpose API method letting sandboxed apps reach the platform's full management API, replacing a narrow fixed allow-list
  • πŸ“‹ Turned an app requirement into a platform capability β€” an editorial workflow board needed advanced content search that didn't exist, so I added it to the SDK and other teams adopted it
  • πŸ›‘οΈ Secure API proxy handling 10,000+ calls per day with validation and transformation
  • 🌍 5 regions across 3 cloud providers, converting 35+ components from hardcoded endpoints to regional resolution
  • πŸ“¦ ~25 formal production releases, one bundling 12 interdependent components at distinct versions
  • 🐞 563 bugs owned and fixed, many surfaced by testing infrastructure I built
  • πŸ₯‡ Runner-up, Contentstack Hackathon β€” prototype later shipped as a product feature
  • ⭐ Above & Beyond Award Γ—4 for consistent platform impact

🀝 Let's Connect & Collaborate

Happy to talk about developer platforms, SDK design and micro-frontend architecture:

  • 🧱 SDK & Platform Architecture β€” stable contracts other teams build on
  • βš›οΈ Micro-Frontends β€” Module Federation, independent deployment, migration strategy
  • πŸ§ͺ Test Automation β€” Playwright, sandboxed environments, release gating
  • 🧩 Developer Experience β€” internal tooling, documentation, self-service setup
  • 🌐 Multi-region Platforms β€” data residency, regional rollout, release coordination
