I build backend platforms and APIs for contracts, trading, and financial products.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Google, I build Accord, an in-house sell-side contract lifecycle management tool, and lead the Accord API domain. I own feature delivery, bug fixes, process definition, incident management, and stakeholder experience for API clients.
I've led Template Selection for Pryce, reducing client-side configuration by roughly 10x while improving filtering, reducing errors, and increasing CSAT. I also led the Accord Submit API to enable contract signature submissions through APIs, moving 80% of contract submissions into a single tool experience.
Previously at Goldman Sachs, I built software supporting commodities trading and sales workflows, including Marquee offerings for external clients to book trades and request quotes for OTC options and futures. At Bloomberg, I developed Python and C++ backend microservices, contributed TypeScript frontend work, and collaborated with product managers and Bloomberg Newsroom teams.
I enjoy leading technical initiatives, including an LLM agent trained on technical documentation, mentoring engineers, and building reliable systems with Java, Python, TypeScript, C++, cloud platforms, databases, and distributed infrastructure.
