About

With a product-first mindset, I have created multiple projects from scratch inside organizations that have seen a lot of scale. I have done my Bachelors in Technology from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology. Being the first hire at SlidesAI, I was trusted with a lot of the product development that had to be done. Along with the guidance received, I could successfully execute a couple of projects, leading a few developers at times in order to get the projects executed at a faster pace. I was given the opportunity to get my product brain involved, brainstorm and bring new features to production, enhancing User Experience and retention thereby. I am truly lucky to work on a codebase that caters 12M+ users. Learnt and executed a bunch of industry practices apart from code as well that helps in the product cycle. I could even bring down the build time for our web app from 21 minutes to 3 minutes.
