WHAT I'M UP TO.
A living snapshot — updated when things change. Inspired by Derek Sivers' /now movement.
Open to SDE-2 / senior backend roles. Remote preferred, India WFO considered.
SMARTFORMFLOW.
Building multi-step conditional logic and a real-time split-pane form preview on top of the live Razorpay payment flow. Currently finishing the pre-launch checklist — legal pages, Sentry error tracking, and uptime monitoring — before opening the first 10 paying clients. The platform handles event registrations, certificate issuance, and WhatsApp/email messaging for SMB organizers. Built solo on a single VPS, 5-container Docker Compose stack.
DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS.
Reading Designing Data-Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppmann — working through the replication, partitioning, and consistency chapters. The QuizBuzz load-testing session surfaced a class of failure (data stranded in the wrong backing store during a topology change) that DDIA covers rigorously. Going through it as a way to put first-principles vocabulary on patterns already encountered in production.
OPEN TO ROLES.
Completing my MSc in Computer Science (June–July 2026), with 1.5 years of full-time production experience building backend systems, infrastructure, and async job pipelines. Targeting SDE-2 or senior backend engineer roles at startups — teams building real infrastructure where backend reliability matters. Remote preferred; open to WFO in India.
