~/about.md
I'm a full-stack software engineer and Co-Founder/CTO with 4+ years building AI products, distributed SaaS platforms and real-time systems. I work across Python, TypeScript/React, Go and Node.js, and I've built voice-AI pipelines, SDKs, event-driven services and cloud-native infrastructure.
What I care about is the stuff in between the idea and the launch: system design, security, testing, and the CI/CD that keeps it all honest.
Education: B.E. Computer Science, K.R. Mangalam University (2019–2023). Delhi Public School, Mathura Road.
~/work · the rig on the wall
Co-founded and architected an AI-native monetization platform. Built typed Python and Node.js SDKs for usage tracking, credits, subscriptions, entitlements and LLM cost capture. Designed event-driven metering on PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Redis and Kafka, engineered Stripe billing from upgrades to customer migrations, and run production on Azure AKS and GCP/GKE with Kubernetes, Helm and GitHub Actions.
Architected the embeddable chat widget backend with real-time messaging, secure uploads and dynamic theming, all managed from a self-serve dashboard, and put a global Cloudflare CDN in front of it. Built a workflow automation engine with a React Flow editor on Temporal, CI/CD across every service, and a zero-downtime migration to AWS RDS.
Unified board-specific vending machine codebases into a factory-pattern architecture, cutting new hardware integration time by 60%. Led the PHP to NestJS migration (about 50% faster feature work), cut PostgreSQL query latency by 40%, wrote a custom SSP protocol handler for cash and coin changers, and built the REST and WebSocket APIs behind ₹10M+ in annual recurring revenue at 99.9% uptime.
Led a global pathologist reporting panel, automated Docker and Jenkins pipelines (30% faster deploys), and built Python microservices on PostgreSQL and MongoDB.
~/lab · the Echo Dot on my desk doesn't talk to Amazon anymore
I reverse-engineered the Alexa Voice Service protocol on an Echo Dot and wrote a Python HTTP/2 and TLS proxy that replaces the default cloud voice pipeline with backends I control, both local and cloud.
It handles server-initiated speech over persistent HTTP/2, MCP tool calling, conversational memory and workflow automation, and it plugs into Spotify and Telegram.

~/workshop · the printer stand
Two 3D printers sit on the stand next to my desk. In this room they're always mid-print.
~/awards · the pegboard
Responsibly disclosed a validated security vulnerability in Amazon's consumer-device ecosystem, with a reproducible proof of concept and impact analysis.
Awarded for "Smile Foundation", an NGO website built with low-code tools, recognised for its impact and creativity.
~/contact · pick up the phone
I'm always up for talking about AI products, billing infrastructure, weird hardware, or anything that needs to go from zero to production.

The headphones on my desk follow my last.fm scrobbles. When they glow, I'm listening.
