IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned software engineer with 7 years of experience in building innovative products from the ground up, particularly in high-growth startups. My journey has taken me through various roles where I have honed my skills in developing AI-powered solutions and full-stack applications. As the founder of Ticker360 and Finvio, I successfully bootstrapped two AI-driven stock research platforms, leveraging large language models for automated financial analysis.
Throughout my career, I have contributed significantly to scaling platforms and enhancing operational efficiency. At Akto, I played a pivotal role in transforming the MVP into a production-ready platform, implementing self-service deployment solutions and leading cloud migrations. My experience at Dunzo and CleverTap further solidified my backend engineering skills, where I designed systems that improved throughput and integrated billing features for self-serve customers.
With a strong foundation in computer engineering and a passion for leveraging technology to solve complex problems, I am eager to bring my expertise to new challenges and continue driving innovation in the tech industry.
