LLMs, systems, and tasteful design.
Designing pixel-perfect UIs and then organically coding them into existence? Yeah, I do both — from a blank Figma canvas to a systematized codebase. Full circle.

Where the code actually went to production.
Two roles, one habit: own the thing end to end and keep it fast.
Software Engineer
CurrentAnimallFull-stack product engineering at consumer scale.
Building full-stack products end to end — from schema to screen — with a hard bias toward speed, on a platform that 10M+ users depend on.
Product Engineer
TCSOwned UI systems and real-time infrastructure for an internal collaboration product.
Designed and implemented advanced UI features including combined multi-filters, a minimal work-tracker interface, and multiple UX redesigns.
Implemented end-to-end file handling workflows, supporting attachment upload/download, optional text-less messages, and reliable data persistence using SQL database.
Integrated real-time communication features by implementing and connecting backend logic with WebSockets.
Things I built because I wanted them to exist.
No tutorial clones. Each one shipped with a real backend behind it.
Collect
Fullstack / Cloud StorageBasically your very own Google Drive, but without the data harvesting. Upload photos, videos, docs — securely stored in the cloud. Lock the private stuff, star the important stuff. The UI? Smooth, clean, and OG. No AI-generated templates here; this is handcrafted, artisanal code.
Carefood
Food Tech / API IntegrationA typical food app but, you know, actually good. Features a rock-solid backend integration unlike those half-baked tutorial apps. Powered by Swiggy's API for real restaurant data because why reinvent the wheel when you can just make it roll faster?
Before the code, there was a canvas.
The tools that keep getting picked.
