I build software that
solves real problems.

Hello, and thanks for the minute. Here’s the short version: I love solving real problems, properly. The kind where someone is actually stuck, you build the fix, and you can see the joy on their face when it works. That’s the reason I picked CS in the first place, and the reason I keep building.

Most of what’s below started the same way. The video team I was on was burning an hour per clip on research; what I built for them does it in fifteen minutes. I was paying ₹130 a month for cloud storage I barely opened; what I built for me costs ₹25 with twice the space. NearHands was the same instinct, scaled up: home services that book like a Rapido instead of a phone call to your uncle’s friend. Someone is annoyed by something they do every week, a weekend or three goes by, the annoyance stops. That’s the whole job.

The other thing I care about is how it gets built. I’d rather spend an extra day on tests than ship something that falls over the second a real number of users show up. At Finrep that ends up looking like a bit of everything: frontend most days, backend when something needs writing, devops and automation when something keeps breaking. Startup math, basically. You don’t stick to one job.

Two things from outside the day-to-day, since you’re still here. I won a national 24-hour hackathon on Stellar with a product-authenticator for medicine supply chains (scan the QR, trace the whole journey from manufacturer to your hand). And I was tech lead for Ambition, a 700-person hackathon with 150+ repos and roughly twice the sponsor coordination a 24-hour event has any business with. Both the kind of thing you sign up for exactly once, and somehow remember every detail of.
