Pranith Varma
@pranithvarma
Software Development Engineer building high-scale fintech mobile experiences, from UPI journeys to AI-powered finance tools.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Development Engineer focused on shipping reliable, high-scale fintech features for mobile users. At Freo, I helped build, launch, and scale the UPI platform—engineering core transaction journeys (P2P, P2M, self-transfer, mandates, UPI Lite), leading the UPI vertical, and optimizing onboarding to improve activation and reduce drop-offs.
Previously, as a Software Developer Intern, I integrated multiple machine learning models into Aadhaar verification to detect potential fraud and reduce manual review effort. I also improved microservice performance using Redis caching, and contributed to a microservices-based Resident Aadhaar Enrollment system to support reliability and scalability.
I enjoy combining solid architecture with product impact in my projects too—building an AI-powered personal CFO app (Vault) with Clean Architecture, BLoC, offline-first caching, Supabase auth, and secure Edge Functions. I’ve also built a Flutter movies discovery app with REST API integration, local caching, and a polished user experience using BLoC.
