Foundational Leadership: Spearheaded the foundational engineering culture and organizational design for Roku India. Partnered with leadership to establish site-wide engineering practices, guardrails, and optimal team topologies, scaling the hub from its first 10 employees to a fully operational engineering center. • Developer Experience (DX): Architected and directed the technical vision for the new end-to-end Roku Developer Experience platform (developer.roku.com). Streamlined the entire application lifecycle (onboarding, CI/CD pipelines, beta testing, rollouts, and analytics), significantly reducing developer friction for the Roku ecosystem. • Channelstore Revamp Architecture: Led the major architectural rewrite of the Legacy Roku Channelstore web application (channelstore.roku.com), eliminating error-prone API BFFs and legacy Lambda dependencies. Drove transformative performance gains, including a 95.5% improvement in P99 latency (38.8s to 1.74s), a 56% improvement in LCP, and enhanced infrastructure stability (pod restarts reduced from a mean of ~105 to <1). • AI Innovations: Engineered an Agentic AI-enabled Customer Issue Triage tool from scratch, leveraging Mastra, RAG/CAG, Vespa and Entra RBAC-enabled MCP servers on FastMCP. Conceived and delivered an in-house AI-powered code review tool that elevated engineering velocity and code quality organization-wide.
