Directing Engineering @ VideoSDK & ZeroRuntime | WebRTC & Voice AI Agent Infrastructure | Scaled 0→Enterprise, Serving Millions

About

I build the infrastructure that makes real-time AI conversations feel effortless. I joined VideoSDK as one of its earliest engineers and have grown with it over 4+ years, from writing the signaling and media servers solo, to building our SDKs from scratch, to now directing engineering across infrastructure, SDK, and applied AI teams of 15–18 people. Along the way I've scaled WebRTC infrastructure from early-stage to millions of concurrent sessions, fine-tuned open models like Whisper, LLaMA, and Qwen for low-latency conversational AI, and shipped a production real-time AI Avatar and Voice Agent platform now used by enterprises worldwide. What I care about: latency you can feel, systems that hold up at scale, and small teams that ship like large ones. My work sits at the intersection of real-time media (WebRTC, RTP, codecs) and generative AI infrastructure. Core focus areas: real-time media infra · voice & video AI agents · low-latency inference · SDK & developer experience · engineering leadership. I'm always open to connecting with people building in real-time AI, voice/video infrastructure, and developer tooling, engineers, founders, and teams solving hard problems in this space. If you're building something ambitious here, reach out.

Work experience

Founding Team - Engineering Manager I at videosdk.live, Apr 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 6 mos, Bengaluru, • Led cross-functional teams (Infrastructure, SDK, AI, Customer Success, Solution Engineering, and Forward Deployment) of 15–18 engineers, owning the roadmap, hiring, and technical direction across all three tracks. • Shipped a production-grade Real-Time AI Avatar and Voice Agent platform, fine-tuning Whisper, LLaMA, Qwen for low-latency conversational AI serving enterprise customers globally. • Defined quarterly engineering roadmaps, conducted technical interviews, and mentored engineers across applied AI, real-time infrastructure, and SDK development. • Drove deepfake detection research and integrated it into live video pipelines, enabling secure and verified AI interactions for enterprise use cases.

Founding Team - Principal SDE at videosdk.live, Oct 2023 - Apr 2024 · 7 mos, Surat, • Built and scaled WebRTC SFU infrastructure from early-stage to millions of concurrent sessions, with a focus on latency optimization at the media transport and codec layer. • Built end-to-end video encoding and distribution pipelines for WebRTC, HLS, and RTMP, optimizing codec configurations and delivery paths to reduce encoding time, cut infrastructure costs, and improve stream quality and reliability. • Operated as the technical anchor across infrastructure and SDK teams, setting architecture standards, making foundational stack decisions, and establishing the engineering patterns the organization still runs on. • Designed and shipped multiple internal GenAI tools that automated repetitive engineering workflows, directly accelerating the team's ability to iterate on real-time AI products.

Founding Team - SDE at videosdk.live, Jul 2022 - Oct 2023 · 1 yr 4 mos, Surat, • Solely designed and built VideoSDK's signaling server and media server components from the ground up, the foundational infrastructure that the entire platform is built on top of today. • Engineered the Flutter SDK as the sole developer, giving mobile developers a first-class cross-platform real-time communication experience. • Architected scalable WebRTC transport layers and low-latency media pipelines, establishing the core engineering patterns that the infrastructure and SDK teams would later build on. • Operated with full end-to-end ownership across multiple critical systems simultaneously, shipping production-grade infrastructure as a founding team engineer with no playbook to follow.

Founding Team - SDE at Dzor, Dec 2020 - Dec 2021 · 1 yr 1 mo, Ahmedabad, • Sole engineer on the DZOR mobile application, designed, built, and shipped the entire product solo in Flutter, from first line of code to live releases on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store. • Implemented Flutter platform channels for deep native integrations on Android and iOS. • Architected and deployed a full microservices backend in Node.js and Python as the only backend engineer, owning infrastructure, services, and deployment end-to-end.
