About

As a Computer Science and Engineering graduate from Tagore Engineering College in Chennai, India, I have extensive experience in product development and computer science. I began my career at a startup in the eCommerce industry where I played a crucial role in developing the risk and security infrastructure for a scalable seller ecosystem. This experience allowed me to handle millions of user requests and set me on the path to building scalable and secure systems for large-scale operations. Later, I joined the team of engineers at Zuppler where I built a point-of-sale-as-a-service (POSaaS) system that managed order and menu operations for thousands of restaurants across two continents. As a senior developer, I also designed and scaled systems in the accounting domain for Mekari, which became the #1 accounting solution in Indonesia. My experience has been focused on delivering high-quality products using Node.js and Ruby on Rails. Throughout my career, I have gained expertise in the FinTech domain and have led teams of engineers to deliver complex projects. I am passionate about solving problems and creating innovative solutions, and I am always looking for new challenges to take on. Overall, my experience has prepared me to take on new challenges in the technology industry, and I am excited to bring my expertise to new projects and opportunities.
