What I'm looking for

I’m open to global async-first roles where I can ship AI pipelines and distributed systems end-to-end—owning architecture, execution, and measurable results—while collaborating through written specs and async walkthroughs across time zones.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 5 years shipping AI pipelines, distributed systems, and full-stack products for async-first remote teams across India, USA, and Europe. I focus on measurable outcomes—like cutting AI scoring cost 80% and eliminating $3K+/month in data enrichment tools—by building practical systems on platforms like Claude API, prompt caching, and multi-stage pipelines.

I thrive in remote, async execution: I’ve run engagements end-to-end using written specs, Loom walkthroughs, and structured Slack threads with no standups. From sustaining 99.9% uptime on mission-critical geofencing to building fast, no-login async file collection that reduced follow-up time by 40%, I enjoy turning complex requirements into reliable, scalable software.
