Record open · Bengaluru, IN

I build the systems businesses run their operations on.

Staff Engineer with 12+ years of experience building and leading engineering teams and systems. I work across technical direction, architecture, delivery, mentoring, and hands-on development — from shaping the problem to getting it into production.

Outside the day job, I build products in parallel — pharma inventory, SaaS billing, B2B travel, SEO tooling, and a few things built just because. All state machines, all built to a shipping bar.

Casual Listening / Curated Playlists

A no-frills site for hearing curated playlists — chill listening, nothing algorithmic or fancy, just collated vibes.

Now

12+ years in engineering means more than writing code. I lead technical direction, mentor engineers, drive architecture and design decisions, influence engineering standards, manage cross-team dependencies, review trade-offs, and stay accountable for delivery — while staying hands-on with the systems I build.

Working full-time as a Staff Engineer while building Medzy, Cosmos, StayHub, and Nova in parallel — engineering execution first, learning and distribution second. React/TypeScript on the front end, Java and Node.js behind it, with Kafka, Redis and PostgreSQL underneath. Deployed across Render, Cloudflare, and Railway. Built independently, outside company time and resources.
