About

I build production systems, and I do it while finishing my CS degree.I'm a final-year Computer Science undergraduate and Software Engineer at FirstHive, a B2B marketing automation platform. In the past several months I've gone from writing my first production line to owning entire systems that enterprise clients depend on every day.I architected a real-time event ingestion pipeline that processes 1,000+ behavioral events daily with zero data loss. I designed and standardized 50+ event schemas across 4 product categories. I built enterprise analytics dashboards, React on the front, Flask on the back, MySQL underneath, handling thousands of records with optimized queries, filtering, pagination, and aggregation. I engineered a production-ready RBAC authentication system for B2B2C deployment. I debugged gnarly async state synchronization issues in a large-scale React application. And I shipped 7+ features that real enterprise users use today. Before FirstHive, I automated QA workflows at Zeni.ai and wrote performance optimization code for rocket motor engines at Skyroot Aerospace. I've been awarded a 100% B.Tech CS scholarship by Sitare Foundation, the Reliance Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship, and the FFE Scholarship, all merit-based.I'm graduating soon and actively looking for full-time Software Engineering roles at product companies and high-growth startups in India where I can own meaningful problems from day one.
