About

Armed with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology, Surat, I am currently driving innovations as a Senior Software Engineer at Kutumb. My core competencies lie in software design and cloud computing, with a demonstrated ability to improve system scalability and enhance user retention through technical ingenuity. At Kutumb, our team successfully personalized millions of images with near-perfect success rates, thanks to our robust use of AWS services. We've improved critical subscription flows, directly impacting peak order volumes and strengthening user engagement with feed automation. My goal is to continue contributing to our culture of excellence, bringing diverse technical perspectives to the team and aligning with our collective aspirations for growth and innovation.
