At Walmart Global Tech India, I led the architectural redesign of a distributed autoscaling system, cutting onboarding latency by 200×. I received a Bravo Award for this work.

I developed Adaptive Scaling, a Golang-based, ML-driven solution for distributed Kubernetes workloads that saved over $3M in cloud infrastructure costs. I also built its Kubernetes controller, ML Orchestrator, and core GraphQL backend.

At Walmart Global Tech India, I designed an event-driven secrets management system for Kubernetes workloads, eliminating periodic polling across 100K+ resources and reducing secret gateway load by 80%. I also built a self-service diagnostics tool that reduced on-call incidents by 70%+.

At Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Ropar, I developed a Flutter and Django campus access system that reduced paperwork by 90%. For my SDN capstone project, I created a Solidity smart contract for decentralized malicious-IP blacklisting and achieved a 15% reduction in gas costs.
