About

Product-driven and tech-agnostic backend engineer with a core focus on problem solving. I’ve worked with startups throughout my career, from early-stage ones to unicorns. Love moving at rocket pace, ownership and autonomy suit me well. In fact, I’ve owned and taken critical products from 0–10. I prefer working in environments that help me grow at rocket pace too. Learning and career growth matter a lot to me, and I don’t trade them off for anything. Hands on with NodeJS, Java, MongoDB, MySQL, and love designing systems end to end — from LLD to HLD. Love scale and distributed systems. I’m also actively ramping up on GenAI. Last but not least, I love physics and I’m competitive. Hit me up if this excites you.
