About

I am an Engineering Lead and experienced Individual Contributor with 10+ years of expertise in building scalable, high-performance products across consumer and enterprise domains.

I specialize in designing robust frontend architectures, developing reusable SDKs and component libraries, and driving performance and reliability at scale. I have successfully led teams to deliver mission-critical platforms, mentored engineers to raise technical standards, and owned projects end-to-end from design through production rollout.

With strong skills in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and Node.js, I thrive at the intersection of user experience, developer experience, and business impact.

  • Built scalable frontend systems, internal boilerplates, and a developer-focused SDK that strengthened the entire platform ecosystem.
  • Mentored engineers, set high technical standards, and established consistent code quality and architectural reviews.
  • Delivered major performance wins—improving Lighthouse scores, reducing bundle sizes, and modernizing rendering with SSR/Suspense.
  • Created and maintained an in-house design system and component library for consistency and rapid product development.

Experience

Engineering Lead

Spheron Network — Engineering Manager / IC

At Spheron, I led the end-to-end frontend engineering efforts across core products—Fizz, Console, and the Provider App—owning everything from architecture to production rollout. I built scalable frontend foundations, internal boilerplates, and authored the Spheron Protocol SDK, enabling seamless developer interactions with the decentralized infrastructure. I drove major performance improvements, led the migration to modern state management and real-time streaming via SSE, and created the in-house design system to unify product experiences. Alongside my IC work, I mentored engineers, set technical standards, and ensured reliability, scalability, and developer efficiency across the platform.

Lead Software Engineer / SSE 2

MakeMyTrip

At MakeMyTrip, I led the entire Flights UI stack for both desktop and mobile web, managing everything from requirement discussions to delivering high-performance, production-quality code. I shipped major business features, optimized critical user journeys, and significantly improved Lighthouse and Core Web Vitals scores using advanced performance techniques such as streaming, off-main-thread execution, memoization, and HTTP/2 prioritization. I also architected a scalable internationalization/localization framework for the Flights platform and independently built the MMT Careers website—from repo setup to CI/CD and feature development. My contributions earned me the Employee of the Quarter award.

Software Engineer (Platform)

Xooa Inc.

At Xooa, I worked as a full-stack engineer building developer-facing tools around blockchain infrastructure. I developed an NPM module and UI for API telemetry and monitoring, and designed a plugin architecture that allowed customizable UIs on top of Xooa’s ledger database. I also enhanced existing features—including smart contract deployment and the Blockchain PaaS dashboard—working as a single-member engineering team for several initiatives.

Software Developer

BookMyShow

At BookMyShow, I contributed to multiple high-traffic consumer and partner-facing applications. I developed the Partner Application from the ground up using modern frontend and backend technologies, built boilerplates for server-rendered React apps, and maintained key features of the BMS PWA. I played an active role in data modelling and schema decisions and collaborated with the Growth and CRO teams to improve user flows and conversions. I also mentored developers, reviewed critical code paths, and ensured best practices around performance, memory, and security.

Co-founder & Technology Head

Legistify

As the co-founder and tech head at Legistify, I led all engineering and product development from scratch—building a legal-tech platform that included a lawyer search engine, consultation workflows, and a DIY legal document generator. I owned architecture, implementation, and deployment across the entire stack, ensuring a reliable and user-friendly product experience. This role gave me early leadership experience and a strong foundation in building and scaling products end-to-end.
