Helping founders build & scale high-impact tech products.

Co-Founder @ AlterSquare · Backend & Systems Engineer · Mumbai, India 🇮🇳

I co-founded AlterSquare to help founders turn complex ideas into resilient, production-grade products. My work lives where clean architecture meets real business outcomes — collapsing intricate, manual processes into automation systems, and growing early products into platforms that hold up under load.

I fell for programming in my second year of engineering and never looked back. Over the years I've shipped across a wide range of stacks, with a lasting affinity for Node.js and Go on the backend.

What I care about:

• 🎯 Founder-focused solutions — built around the actual business, not the trend of the week
• 🔁 Long-term product evolution — over throwaway MVPs
• 📈 Strategic scaling — architecture that grows with the company
• 🚀 Accelerated launches — without accumulating tech debt

• Design and build scalable microservices and event-driven backends
• Architect resilient databases and data pipelines — relational and graph
• Stand up cloud infrastructure as code and Kubernetes-based deployments
• Build intelligent automation that removes slow, error-prone manual workflows

Alongside AlterSquare, I consult for engineering teams that need senior backend, infra, and system-design depth.

Languages:     Go · Node.js · JavaScript/TypeScript · Java · Rust
Backend:       NestJS · Express · REST APIs · event-driven services
Databases:     PostgreSQL · MongoDB · Redis · Neo4j · TimescaleDB
Infra & DevOps: Docker · Kubernetes · Terraform · CI/CD · Infrastructure as Code
Architecture:  Microservices · CQRS · distributed systems

• Paperless Clone — NestJS — Document management system core service
• Paperless Clone — Job Microservice — Background processing service for document management
• Mini CoWIN App — Vaccination slot notifier
• File Shredder — Secure file deletion utility mimicking wiping algorithms
• Zipper — File compression & archiving tool with encryption, written in Rust
• Offline Text Editor — Lightweight, secure editor for sensitive content
• Group SSH Chat — Secure, collaborative SSH-based chat in Go
• Stock Simulator — Market simulation in Go
• Enigma WASM — WebAssembly implementation of Enigma encryption
• Enigma NodeJS — Node.js implementation of Enigma encryption

I'm always up for talking system architecture, database design, and anything around Go, Node.js, and microservices — collaboration, consultation, or just a good tech chat.

When I'm away from the keyboard, you'll find me watching movies and TV, following startups and emerging tech, and poking at open source when I can.
