About

Frontend Architect & Technical Lead | 10+ Years Experience I specialise in architecting scalable frontend systems, SDKs, and micro-frontends for high-growth platforms in EdTech and Fintech. My focus is on balancing architectural purity with business velocity—delivering systems that handle millions of users while remaining maintainable for engineering teams. Throughout my career at companies like Unacademy and Headway, I have moved beyond just "building features" to owning the technical strategy: from defining design systems to optimising critical rendering paths. Core Impact & Architecture: * SDK & System Design: Architected reusable JavaScript/React SDKs for banking clients, enabling rapid integration across multiple products. Designed micro-frontend architectures using WebRTC and WebSockets for live classroom platforms. Performance Engineering: Obsessed with web vitals. Successfully reduced application load times by 22% through bundle optimisation and state management refactors. Implemented Brotli compression and JS offloading to cut payload sizes by 15-20%. * Large-Scale Data: Built virtualisation systems to render millions of analytics rows without compromising UI responsiveness. * Leadership: Tech Lead for teams of 10+ engineers , driving code standards, architectural reviews, and mentorship. Technical Stack: * Core: React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+) State & Data: Redux Toolkit, React Query, GraphQL, REST Performance: Webpack, Vite, Lazy Loading, Server Components Testing & CI/CD: Jest, TDD, Jenkins, GitHub Actions I am actively exploring Senior Staff / Architect roles where I can drive frontend strategy and mentor high-performing teams.
