What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my skills in UI development and contribute to impactful projects.

I'm a passionate software architect with a strong focus on UI development and optimization. Currently, I am leading efforts at Udaan to enhance user experience by migrating applications to expo-router while ensuring backward compatibility. My work includes overhauling dashboards to track agent productivity and co-developing a Design System that promotes consistent user interfaces across our platforms.

Previously, as a Lead Software Engineer at Upfront91, I successfully reduced the react-native bundle size by 20% and improved app startup time by 75%, significantly driving conversions. My contributions also include developing a platform during the pandemic to help users find medicines, showcasing my ability to create impactful solutions under pressure.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized with multiple awards, including the 'Leading without Authority' award at Udaan and the Samsung Citizen Award. My educational background in Computer Engineering has provided me with a solid foundation to tackle complex challenges in software development.
