About
Me

I'm a software engineer and team lead based in Gonda, Uttar Pradesh. Currently leading engineering at Paytm — one of India's largest fintech platforms — where I ship cross-platform applications and mentor the next wave of engineers.

My craft sits at the intersection of beautiful frontend experiences and robust backend architecture. I've built everything from health-tech mobile apps with 18K+ downloads to dental platforms connecting doctors and labs in real time.

When I'm not coding, I'm probably reviewing a PR, unblocking a teammate, or thinking about system design at 2 AM.
