About

Building for scale,
shipping with precision

I'm a full-stack engineer with a frontend focus and deep backend expertise in Node.js and FastAPI. Over two years I've shipped pricing systems, async pipelines, SSR apps, and data-heavy dashboards — end to end.

I care about reliability under real-world pressure — fault tolerance, low latency, and clean architecture that doesn't wake anyone up at 2am. If it goes to production, it stays there.

Based in Visakhapatnam, India, working remotely and comfortable across time zones.
