About

As an Engineer at Bloomreach, I delivered a feature that enabled customers to selectively list products in the search results based on availability, working closely with the product manager and collaborating with cross-functional teams. I also set up the alerts and monitoring for dashboard services, ensuring the reliability and performance of the enterprise search platform. Before joining Bloomreach, I co-founded Stormy, a CLI tool that reduced the local compile time of code by up to 80%, using the power of language servers. I had Unacademy as our pilot users, and received positive feedback on the tool's impact on developer productivity. I also worked as a Software Engineer at Microsoft, where I was part of the Notification and Feeds Teams, and added a settings page for the Teams For Life app. I migrated the API for fetching the images in Notifications to a more robust and efficient one. I graduated from Motilal Nehru National Institute Of Technology with a Bachelor of Technology in Information Technology. I am passionate about self-improvement, first principles thinking, and web3 technologies. I have multiple certifications, including Body Language for Leaders from LinkedIn. I am also a mentor at Atal Innovation Mission, and a former president of the Narrator's club at Toastmasters International.

Stormy

Co-Founder

Oct 2020Aug 2021 · 10 mos · Banglore, Karnataka

  • Stormy is a cli tool that can reduce the local compile time of code upto 80% and reducing the time it takes for developers to change and compile code locally.
  • Most of the codebase gets bloated and the feedback cycle of making code changes and compiling increases to 5 to 30 minutes. This leads to waste of developer productivity.
  • Stormy is solving the problem by taking the code changes and compiling them using the powerful language servers.
  • I had Unacademy as our pilot users.
