Software Engineer - Agentic AI Platform @ Freshworks || Ex @ Cyble (YC W21) || SVUCE @ 2024

About

I am a Software Engineer focused on building scalable platforms and production-grade AI systems. Currently working on building Responsible Agentic AI capabilities at platform scale — enabling reliable, secure, and reusable AI experiences across products. My experience spans backend engineering, distributed systems, platform architecture, and AI infrastructure. I enjoy solving engineering problems around orchestration, tool integration, observability, reliability, and operational excellence. Previously, I worked extensively on backend development and microservice-based architectures, designing scalable services and robust APIs with strong engineering fundamentals. Areas of interest: • Agentic AI • AI Platform Engineering • MLOps / LLMOps • Distributed Systems • Backend Engineering • System Design • Developer Platforms I enjoy turning complex ideas into systems that are simple to operate, scale, and evolve.
