I’m a Principal Engineer who enjoys turning complex problems into simple, scalable solutions. Over 9+ years, I’ve built systems that solve real-world challenges — from home renovation workflows at Livspace to seafood manufacturing at Captainfresh. I care about clean abstractions, APIs that make sense, and systems that just work — without long meetings to figure them out. Working across different projects has made me tech-agnostic, though I do have my favourites. 😄 Mentoring engineers has become one of the most rewarding parts of my work. As I’ve moved into more senior roles, I’ve realized that multiplying the impact of a team is often more powerful than individual contribution alone. Leading and supporting people’s growth is now a central part of how I measure success. Always happy to connect with engineers, teams or opportunities solving interesting problems!
