About

As a Senior Frontend Engineer with a proven track record in delivering innovative solutions, I bring deep technical expertise and a passion for problem-solving that drives impactful results.

My work on the Native OTP microservice earned the Edison Award for innovative problem-solving, where I re-architected the service using Playwright and TypeScript, significantly improving transaction success rates. I’ve led and architected key projects such as InstantEMI, an ambitious new product, and the Affordability Widget, an industry-first product and a significant part of the Payments Bureau's stack. Previously, at Entri, a leading EdTech startup in South India, I contributed to the re-architecture of their web app and integrated an AI chatbot service for customer support. Earlier, I founded Pixenova during my final year of college, delivering projects including J4Joli, a job listing platform that scaled to 20,000+ paid users. Throughout my career, I’ve demonstrated a commitment to creating scalable solutions that address real business challenges. I thrive in dynamic environments where innovation drives success and am dedicated to making a lasting impact in the tech industry.
