Technologies and domains I work with day-to-day building production systems.
Production AI, mobile and platform work—showing what I personally built, the scale reached and where the evidence is public.
Architecture, mobile inference and production platform ownership
Designed and built React Native model-lifecycle flows for verified GGUF downloads and private on-device inference, with controlled FastAPI fallback, prompt safeguards and production observability.
Platform architecture, hands-on delivery and engineering leadership
Evolved the visual-matching technology started at Olive Theory into a real-time video platform. The system analysed video and surfaced contextually relevant, visually similar products through an in-player widget when viewers paused.
Computer-vision and analytics system delivery
Built brand-logo visibility analysis for BARC using IPL broadcast feeds, turning logo appearances in match video into measurable brand-exposure data.
Mobile architecture, hands-on React Native delivery and data pipelines
Built a React Native shopping app that let people photograph a product and discover visually similar items available to buy. The image-matching foundation later evolved into Accio.ai's video-commerce platform.
Core platform engineering and scale
Built and scaled a platform that structured rapidly changing, on-ground information about critical COVID resources so people could find relevant help during India's second wave.
End-to-end product engineering
Built a prompt-driven system that generated an original song and accompanying video, taking the experience from user prompt through media generation and delivery.
Mobile and backend engineering
Built technology for MTV and Ogilvy India's Memory Karaoke initiative, using familiar music and personalised lyrics to support people experiencing early Alzheimer's disease.
Original projects and clearly labelled integration work. Forks are intentionally excluded.
Original open-source reference platform
An auditable agent runtime with tenant-isolated retrieval, approval-gated tools, durable run state, citations, evaluations and tamper-evident event logs.
Original open-source project
A modular Linux security runtime for SSH hardening, behavioural threat scoring, automated bans, Cowrie honeypots, alerts, threat feeds and cross-node intelligence sharing.
Original open-source project
A one-command Ubuntu setup for a team-agent stack with OpenClaw Gateway, Studio, optional memory retrieval, WatchClaw security, Cloudflare tunnels and rollback support.
Integration scaffold
A local-only memory retrieval bridge combining Hindsight with a vendored PageIndex runtime, protected APIs and structured document retrieval without a hosted vector database.
Original package
A Node.js wrapper for converting XLS and XLSX workbooks into JSON objects or files, with sheet-selection and multi-sheet processing options.
A continuous progression from hands-on software engineering to applied AI and platform leadership.
Lead engineering while remaining hands-on across on-device health AI, React Native product delivery, FastAPI services, identity, subscriptions and production observability.
Owned technical strategy and delivery across AI-enabled products, mobile and web platforms, payments, cloud operations and cross-functional engineering execution.
Led product and platform engineering across Next.js, React, FastAPI and Electron, including payments and social integrations, CI/CD, test automation and production reliability.
Evolved visual product matching into a real-time video-commerce and analytics platform processing more than 500,000 video hours monthly, serving approximately 5 million daily users at 99.9% uptime.
Built a React Native visual-shopping app that matched a photographed product to similar items available to buy, plus catalogue pipelines updating more than 200,000 products daily. The app reached 10,000 downloads in its first month.
Project management, software architecture, team management, and monitoring the development life cycle.
Responsible for website development management (3-tier architecture, database, frontend, Node.js) and deployment to Windows/AWS servers.
Responsible for front-end development using JavaScript and website optimization.
Java development (Struts framework, AJAX, JSP, J2EE), mobile web services (Jersey, SOAP), and AWS EC2 deployment.
Learned telecommunications and server management for WAN, telephone exchange design, and Linux-based monitoring.
