Full-StackProductEngineer.

I turn ambiguous problems into products people rely on, owning the build from zero to production and staying accountable for the outcome long after launch.

(01)About

I own what I ship.

I'm a full-stack product engineer who takes ideas from zero to production and owns what happens next. In 4+ years across hospitality, telecom, entertainment, and automotive, I've shipped products end to end: an enterprise console 50+ teams run their operations on, a mobile app with 15K+ downloads, and a published npm package other developers build on. I'm drawn to the ambiguous, under-specified work most people avoid, the kind where there's no spec and no design, just a problem worth solving. I turn that into something real people use every day, then keep improving it well past launch.

Junior Software Developer

Redblox Technologies Pvt Ltd

Trusted to own the front-end of production products across hospitality, telecom, entertainment, and automotive — often as the only engineer on the experience.

  • Owned the entire front-end of the OtonomiQ AI enterprise console — architecture to API — now relied on by 50+ teams to run daily operations.
  • Shipped Senegal's first MVNO storefront (Promobile) end-to-end, including local payment rails, encrypted checkout, and bilingual reach.
  • Drove cross-platform delivery for Swypatune (10K+ downloads) and Daimler Truck's production sales platform.
  • Turned ambiguous requirements into shipped product — designing Figma mockups, reviewing SRS docs, and owning estimates to keep clients aligned.

Full-Stack Developer Intern

VEI Technologies Pvt Ltd

Came in as an intern and earned real ownership — shipping production features across the stack.

  • Built and shipped responsive interfaces that went live to real users.
  • Contributed to REST API design and wired third-party services into production features.
  • Designed efficient database schemas and caught critical bugs before they reached production.
(02)Personal · Thoughts

How I actually think.

Skills get listed; mindset gets you hired. A few short reads on how I learn, build, and operate, for the founders and teams deciding whether I'm their kind of person.

How I adapt
Adaptability2 min read

Getting good at something new used to take me six months. Now it's closer to one. I adapt by building real things with AI in the loop, not by hoarding tutorials, so don't hire me only for today's stack, hire me for how fast I pick up whatever you need next.

Mindset of 0 → 1 → 100
Builder mindset2 min read

I love the messy zero-to-one, turning a vague idea into something real people can actually touch. But I don't stop there: shipping the MVP is only step one, and making it survive its own growth is the work I care about most.

Exploring new things
Curiosity2 min read

I'm happiest a little out of my depth. New frameworks, unfamiliar domains, weird edge problems, that's where the fun is, and chasing it is how I ended up shipping across telecom, healthcare, automotive, and music.

Open-minded by default
Open-minded2 min read

I have zero attachment to tools, opinions, or who had the idea. The best argument wins, the user decides, and I'd rather be corrected early than be right too late.

Automate the boring parts
Leverage2 min read

If I have to do something twice, I'd rather build the machine that does it. It's why my LinkedIn presence runs itself and why I optimise for outcomes over hours.

Outcomes over hours
Work ethic2 min read

I don't measure work in hours logged, I measure it in what shipped and whether it moved a number. Async, remote, and trusted to own the result is where I do my best work.
