About

I'm a Staff Software Engineer with 13+ years of experience architecting and building scalable, cloud-native systems across infrastructure, networking, security, and application domains. I specialise in solving complex system-level challenges, designing resilient distributed architectures, and driving technical initiatives aligned with business goals. I have experience working in high-growth pre-Series A startup, owning systems end-to-end and shaping platform direction in a fast-moving environment. That experience, combined with an M.Tech from IIT Bombay, grounds my approach to scalable, pragmatic engineering. Today, I lead efforts as a hands-on Tech Lead - mentoring developers, guiding architectural decisions, and helping deliver reliable production systems. I'm passionate about distributed systems, platform scalability, and helping teams build with clarity and impact.
