About

I am currently working as a SDE-2 at Flipkart in the user insights team handling data pipelines dealing with large scale of data. Previously, as a Senior Software Engineer at Affinidi, a dynamic start-up that provides decentralised identity solution, I worked in the developer experience (devex) team developing products for the end user. I'm passionate about solving complex problems using innovative and scalable solutions using the appropriate computer science fundamentals and data structures, and I'm always eager to learn new technologies and frameworks.
