About

As a Principal Engineer with a strong foundation from BITS Pilani, I’ve spent the past several years building and scaling cutting-edge platforms that power global technology enterprises. From leading the technical evolution of Prismforce’s flagship product—scaling it from 10K to over 600K users to launching AI-native solutions published on the Microsoft Teams App Store, I’ve been at the forefront of transforming ideas into resilient, scalable, and high-impact platforms. My expertise spans backend systems (AWS cloud architecture, serverless, microservices), frontend experiences (Android, React/React Native), and platform-scale data strategy and observability. At Prismforce, I’ve driven architecture modernization, led engineering best practices, and enabled real-time onboarding and intelligent automation using agentic AI bots, RAG pipelines, and model routing. Before this, I co-founded startups solving problems in decentralized finance and sustainable logistics—Ecovia and Lazer where we scaled to millions of transactions and 100K+ monthly orders, respectively. I began my journey at Amazon, where I built core payment experiences, like Scan & Pay and the Amazon Pay merchant ecosystem. Whether it’s bootstrapping from scratch or optimizing at scale, I’m passionate about crafting robust systems, mentoring teams, and continuously learning at the intersection of software, systems, and business outcomes.
