Fullstack Engineer with 5 years of full-stack experience.

Some highlights: led a major backend refactor (50% faster loads, 15k+ LOC cleaned up, zero downtime), built a browser-based voice recording feature using FFmpeg.wasm to handle cross-browser codec incompatibilities (adopted 20k+ times), and redesigned search with Typesense to drop zero-result queries from 40% to 5%.

Interested in: AI/ML products, voice interfaces, developer tools, healthcare, education.

I have a CS degree from Ashoka University and strong ML foundations.

Projects:

1. Built an interactive web application to visualize India’s Consumer Price Index across states and categories using Next.js, React, TypeScript with component testing in Jest - https://consumer-price-index-green.vercel.app/

2. Built a terminal-based coding agent using a ReAct loop. Deeply interested in how LLMs are reshaping product interfaces.

I read history and poetry outside of work. I reason from first principles and I write clearly. Happy to learn new stacks — what matters to me is the problem space and the quality of thinking around me.
