Software Engineer

I build tools that make developers faster and help startups grow. I specialize in building agentic workflows, oss infrastructure, high-performance web systems, and creating technical content. I've spent years building products used by thousands, from developer-facing infrastructure at Keploy and Wizdom to building the user base for early-stage startups. My work sits at the intersection of agentic AI, open-source ecosystems, and growth engineering.

Whoa what a massive progressive journey!

Most of the valuable time of my 2nd year, were spent in trying to learn the languages OCaml, Verilog though I couldn't perform very well in these. University curriculum sucks. Also, I faced too many personal problems this year. This year was really unlucky for me.

I remember at the beginning of this year I took a new year resolution of learning the PERN/MERN stack and DSA in depth. Forget the DSA part I have only explored Mongo, Node and Express this year.

I hope I will have great progress and actually be able to learn many new things in the next year. Let's keep high hopes for 2025.

I wish I could manage my university studies like you, then I would have seen much better progress in my journey too...

Over the past year, I made significant progress in my tech journey, building on my experiences from the previous year. I continued solving problems on Leetcode consistently, exceeding 500 solved problems and participating in contests. I completed a CRUD application called "Toile," learned Dynamic Programming, and secured a role as a Community Evangelist at Keploy, where I led an online session on API Testing.

I worked on several freelancing projects and collaborated with friends to create a SaaS project called InPoster. Additionally, I revamped my portfolio and became a Top Contributor to Keploy’s open-source repositories. Despite busy periods like exam months, I maintained my coding consistency and expanded my skills significantly. Overall, I exceeded my expectations and continued to evolve as a developer throughout the year.
