About

Postgres schema to Play Store release.

I'm a full-stack engineer and lead with about nine years shipping production TypeScript across React, Next.js, React Native, and NestJS. Most recently, I spent a year as a Senior Engineer at Walmart on internal revenue tooling — wrapped up May 2026.

Before that I ran short-term contract engagements (TopLegal as Tech Lead, ManifestIT, Speechify), and held senior IC roles at Masai, Swiggy, Globant, and Confluxsys. I move comfortably across the stack — Postgres schema, GraphQL APIs, React/RN UI, EAS releases — and I've shipped solo on monorepos using Turborepo + Yarn workspaces.

Right now I'm building a handful of products on the side and going deep on agent-based developer tooling with the Anthropic SDK and MCP.

13 products built solo — 4 usable today — and agent tooling on the Anthropic SDK and MCP. Building alone is what taught me to write the design set before the code: a component that appears in no HTML file does not ship.
