I joined Curefoods as one of the first few core members of the tech team, and was promoted to the lead position in a short span of time, thanks to my good work and leadership quality. I have owned and developed many end-to-end tech products and features that solved the core business needs and contributed to Curefoods' multifold growth in terms of revenue, customer experience, and cutting-edge technology. Some of the projects I led include designing and developing robust API Gateways, efficiently handling large volume of client-side requests, building internal tools for kitchens, optimizing productivity, and implementing cost optimization projects that led to ~50% cost reduction. I was awarded as the Best Employee of the Year 2023 for owning the company's value: "Do More with Less". I am passionate about leveraging the latest technologies to build scalable and robust tech products. I have a strong background in software engineering, with a Bachelor of Technology degree in Computer Science from Lovely Professional University. I have good skills in Node, NPM, Express, Typescript and databases. I have also done open source contribution to NPM. My aim is to contribute to a forward-thinking company where I can continue to grow, innovate, and drive impactful results.
