India

Message

As an Independent Software Engineer / Technical Lead, I own end-to-end engineering for business-critical logistics and freight-forwarding software. I work directly with US-based stakeholders to clarify operational needs and turn them into practical technical solutions.

I'm leading modernization of a mature PHP/CakePHP platform toward Laravel-based services, React interfaces, and a more structured API architecture. My work spans application components, database structures, and REST/JSON integrations.

Previously, I was a Developer / Team Leader at ORBIO SOLUTIONS PVT. LTD., BENGALURU, and a Team Leader at KONSTANT INFO PRIVATE LTD., JAIPUR, where I planned projects and releases, mentored team members, and contributed hands-on PHP development. At SUNARC TECHNOLOGIES, BIKANER, I developed web application features using PHP, Magento, and Zend Framework.
