I'm a 29-year-old Senior Software Engineer based in Bengaluru, India, originally from West Bengal.
With 7+ years of end-to-end ownership across high-traffic, scalable web and mobile products serving millions of users, I specialize in React.js, Next.js, and TypeScript. I have production experience integrating LLMs (GPT, sonnet, opus, etc.) and agentic AI pipelines into customer-facing systems at scale. I thrive on leading 0-to-1 product initiatives, defining frontend architecture standards, and driving measurable business outcomes through technical leadership and cross-functional collaboration.
If you want to go a level deeper, you can explore how I like to collaborate, the tools and technologies I use, my mentorship work, and some of the things I build outside of work.

Early Years
My dad served in the Indian Air Force, and we traveled quite a bit during my early years. From Delhi to Rajasthan, and then to Kharagpur, I've experienced different places and cultures. Eventually, we settled down in Asansol, West Bengal. It was during this time that I discovered my passion for coding, starting with C, C++, and Basic SQL.
