About
I hold a Master's in Computer Engineering at New York University and am currently looking for a full-time software engineering role in the United States and also building my own products.
My passion lies at the intersection of technology, design, and real-world problem solving. I enjoy creating digital experiences that not only work seamlessly but also feel meaningful and engaging to users.

Selected Work
Founder & Software Engineer
Populr · New York, US
Populr is a marketplace platform that helps fashion designers and local indian brands to scale their businesses.
AI Software Engineering Intern
Somethings · New York, US
As an AI SWE Intern, I migrated legacy Google ADK workflows to HIPAA-compliant n8n pipelines running as Dockerized microservices on AWS, cutting infrastructure costs by 30%. I also worked across from fine-tuning and evaluation of n8n workflows and built a Redis caching layer for high-frequency Gemini API responses that dropped average latency by 40% on live mental health support features.
Full Stack Engineer Intern
Neuroflares · Mysore, India
As a Full Stack Engineer Intern, I built a real-time event scheduling platform using React.js, Express.js, and WebSockets, achieving 99% uptime and contributing to a 20% increase in user engagement through improved cross-device reliability for chat features and built a reusable CSS component library with 10+ Bootstrap-inspired modules and click-to-add functionality, cutting front-end setup time across client projects and improving UI consistency by 20%.

Projects
Serverless marketplace aggregation platform built with AWS CDK and SQS, reducing idle infrastructure cost to $1.50/month at 1k listings and 10k events. A webhook receiver Lambda verifies HMAC-SHA256 signatures with replay-attack prevention and processes events idempotently via DynamoDB conditional writes.
An Ios app that turns a photo library into a living globe. Bulk import scans years of photos and places them as polaroid and sticker pins without manual tagging, each opening into a full memory page.
Aggregates every student discount into one searchable directory. No signup, no login, no paywall: each listing links straight to the source offer.
A macOS menu bar app that replaces the system arrow with an emoji and swaps it automatically based on the app you are in. The swap happens at the CoreGraphics cursor registry, so every app sees it, and the stock arrow is restored on quit or after a crash. Ships with Brainrot, Work, and Gamer packs, signed and notarized.
RAG-based documentation engine using LangChain and Gemini AI for semantic search across GitHub repositories, cutting developer context-switching by 40%. An AssemblyAI pipeline transcribes and indexes audio/video walkthroughs into searchable markdown, and automated PR review workflows via Octokit accelerate integration speed by 15%.
