About

I’m a backend & AI systems engineer at DreamPlay (Dream11), where I helped build Creator’s Economy — a platform that broke a world record of 16.1M concurrent users, served 260M+ users, and generated ₹2000 Cr (~$240M) in revenue during IPL 2025. I work across the full backend spectrum — from Kafka pipelines and Spark jobs to LLM-integrated prediction engines and Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Currently building DreamPlay, a VLM-powered sports performance intelligence platform. IIT Kharagpur Dual Degree | Codechef Smackdown Pre-Finalist | Competitive programmer turned product-impact engineer. Open to backend, AI/ML systems, or platform and product engineering roles
