About Me

As a Full-Stack Software Engineer, I love solving problems related to Full-Stack Development, QA, User Experience, and Product Strategy. I specialize in building scalable web applications with modern frontend frameworks and robust backend systems, with expertise in React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, and cloud technologies.

I've architected and scaled systems from 0 to 12K+ daily active users with 99.95% uptime, designed scalable micro-frontend architectures reducing runtime errors by 25%, and built comprehensive QA automation frameworks using Playwright. My technical stack includes React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Selenium, Docker, AWS, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, CI/CD, Storybook, and LLM integration with RAG.

Currently co-founding Discover Minds, building AI-powered products. Previously at InstaService (scaled to 12K+ DAUs), BlueLearn, and Avalon Meta (acquired by Unacademy). Co-founded BondsPe, scaling it to ₹1Cr+ user portfolio. Published 2 research papers on AI and rapid prototyping, and mentored 180+ students as App Development Lead at GDSC MUJ and Head at ACM MUJ.
