About

Software Engineer building fast, scalable consumer web products. Currently at Shaadi.com, optimising performance and user experience for one of India's largest matchmaking platforms, cutting load times, reducing API overhead, and running A/B experiments that drive real product decisions. Before this, I was the sole frontend owner at Probo's Gully91 sports-tech SaaS platform - built the entire product from scratch with React and Next.js, designed a scalable component architecture, and scaled it to 40–50k weekly users and a top-3 ranking by the International Indoor Cricket Federation. I've also built internal tooling at McKinsey & Company. I like working close to the product, understanding why something is being built, not just how. Open to frontend and full-stack roles at product-driven companies where there's real ownership and room to grow.
