What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a product-focused engineering role where I can lead mobile features, integrate AI/LLM-driven capabilities, mentor engineers, and help scale reliable CI/CD and cross-platform solutions.

I am a seasoned iOS engineer with 8+ years of experience building and scaling consumer apps end-to-end, shipping 5+ products from 0–1 and scaling 1–10. I combine a strong product mindset with backend and AI expertise, and I fluently work in Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit and Objective-C.

At Shaadi.com I led a small iOS team, shipped a women-only swipe discovery flow that increased women-initiated connects by 12%, built and scaled in-app text chat and audio/video calling (CallKit/PushKit/AVFoundation/WebRTC), and co-created Shaadi Live — a 5-minute video speed-date feature. I also drove adoption of modern architectures (Protocol-Oriented Programming, KMM interop) and set up Xcode Cloud CI/CD to improve release reliability and cadence.

I deliver cross-functional technical leadership and product-focused engineering: I’ve built Ruby on Rails microservices (JWT auth), designed n8n-based automations and RAG systems using OpenAI to provide grounded retrieval, and mentored engineers to raise code quality and delivery velocity. I seek roles where I can blend product ownership, platform engineering and AI-driven features to create measurable user impact.
