About me

I'm a software engineer passionate about building polished, high-performance products, with a good design in mind.

At 13, came across Java and started coding, figuring out how software is written, and building toy projects myself for fun.

At 20, worked on building chat platform for a client, where I took care of the frontend and backend, and worked with some of the best people of my college who took care of design, and ML stuff!

Around the same time joined a high-scaled startup as an intern, and learned a lot about building scalable systems and working in a team.

At 21, joined an early-stage startup, working on building web apps, and platforms with a focus on user experience and performance. It's been a year, and am still here!

Experience

Architected and owned multiple production systems across procurement, seller tooling, and campaign platforms, covering frontend, backend integrations, infrastructure, and performance optimization.
Delivered organization-wide engineering improvements that reduced deployment costs by 70%, improved page load performance by 1.5 seconds, and accelerated API latency by 10x.
Built a campaign platform that sustained 8,300 users/minute during a high-profile movie launch without service degradation.
Partnered with product, design, operations, and international supplier teams to ship high-quality features with responsive, pixel-perfect interfaces and strong reliability standards.

Reduced DB costs by 87% and CPU usage from 70% to 20% by eliminating redundant DB writes and optimizing backend logic for a service
Restored ingestion reliability to 99.9% user coverage for a critical banking integration
Resolved extraction funnel failures impacting 300K workflows, 100K+ users; through debugging and pipeline fixes

Built a medical query platform, owning frontend and backend, with RAG-based retrieval and secure authentication, enabling real-time, context-aware responses.
Engineered FastAPI backend for low-latency, structured outputs and scalable API design.
