One system, always running.

Models on the outside, the platform that serves them in the middle, and the delivery that gets it in front of users at the core. Everything turns together or nothing ships.

01 / ABOUT

Thirteen years in engineering, now leading the teams and the AI/ML work that gets built on top of it.

I'm an Engineering Manager in India, working across AI and machine learning, Node.js fullstack delivery and technical leadership. Underneath the management sit thirteen-plus years of hands-on engineering: Node.js with Express and NestJS, Laravel and Lumen, REST APIs, MySQL and PostgreSQL, AWS and GCP.

Most of what I do is translation. Product asks for an outcome, engineering describes a constraint, and someone has to hold both without flattening either. With AI I'm deliberately unromantic: a model is a component with error bars, and the real question is what the product does on the day it's wrong.
