Startup Journey:
In my startup journey, I've worn many hats—CTO, co-founder, and Head of Engineering. These roles have given me a deep understanding of what it takes to build and scale technology solutions that drive business growth.

Technical Expertise:
My expertise spans full-stack development, AI/ML, and DevOps. I've developed end-to-end solutions for various industries, including real money gaming, where I've delivered experiences around Poker, Rummy, and CashFormat, ensuring tables run smoothly 24x7.
