Senior Software Engineer @ Apna Jobs | IIT Kharagpur

About

I build frontend systems that scale. Over nearly four years of product engineering, I've developed a habit of stepping into ambiguous problems and finding structure in them fast. Whether it's architecting a migration, rethinking a legacy codebase, or picking up an unfamiliar tool mid-sprint, I adapt quickly and move with intention. That ability to get up to speed — and stay grounded in long-term scalability — is what I consider my core edge. My engineering background from IIT Kharagpur taught me to approach problems with first principles. That shows up in how I write code: deliberate, maintainable, and built to outlast the sprint it was shipped in.
