What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and scale user-focused products where I can own frontend and full-stack architecture, improve performance, ship meaningful features, and mentor engineers.

I've built and scaled frontend-led, full-stack products at Sanas AI, Instill, and Bajaj Finserv Health, owning architecture, performance, and feature delivery across React, Next.js, Go, NestJS, and PostgreSQL.

At Sanas AI, I drove technical decisions for Portal V3 Frontend while mentoring five engineers. I also built billing endpoints, authentication with Ory and Google OAuth, and Kubernetes-driven cleanup workflows with Kafka, audit logging, and New Relic instrumentation.

At Instill, I led frontend development for a B2B product from 0→1, creating an accessible React design system and scalable client-side data layers. At Bajaj Finserv Health, I helped build Aarogya Care from 0→1, improved critical journeys to under one minute, and stabilized the DRx React Native app.

I enjoy exploring systems through projects such as a real-time chat app and a school management platform. I'm motivated by user-focused engineering, reliable performance, and products that can grow from thousands to millions of users.
