I'm an experienced Product Engineer who enjoys building products, obsessing over customers, and solving hard problems. I've been programming since 8th grade and it's second nature by now. I love diving into tricky problems, building core platforms, and scaling the business to its next phase, with a track record to prove it.

I build hands-on, so tooling isn't a constraint. I pick up whatever the problem needs. Preferred stack, known down to the nitty gritty: TypeScript, Node.js, React, Next.js, Astro, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Redis, AWS, and AI agents and their SDKs.

Background

Bachelor of IT from the University of Mumbai. I come from a small town that had no idea what IT or a software engineer was, and I became its first. Today I mentor students back home who look up to that journey as proof it can be done :)

I prefer working up front with customers in tight feedback loops, and I have a knack for indie hacking. Currently prototyping clampdown.ai, an AI-native external risk and brand protection agent. Shipped in the past, earning about $13K USD in total: ampliflare.com, Headstart, BestWebExtension, and kibibyte.in.
