πŸ’Ό Work Experience

Software Engineer II Β· Nighthack Labs

Dec 2024 – Present

Swastha (fleet & waste-collection platform, MVP stage, architected to scale to 30–50 concurrent users)

  • Owned system design across all four layers β€” React/TypeScript admin portal, NestJS backend, Postgres/Prisma data layer, and React Native field app
  • Designed the database schema, API contracts, and tenant-aware access model, syncing data cleanly across web, backend, and mobile in real time
  • Built GPS-based live fleet tracking with location history for 43 vehicles, capturing coordinates every 3 minutes across an 8–9 hour daily ignition-on window, plus route comparison, driver/vehicle reassignment, notifications, and digital trip passes
  • Shipped mobile trip execution, QR-based collection checks, and waste-deposit flows with 7-language support

WhiteGold (financial services CRM)

  • Built the CRM (React/TypeScript, NestJS/Prisma) covering onboarding, KYC, and transaction approvals for 120–150 branches across South India plus HO operations, supporting 500 concurrent users at ~1,500 requests/sec
  • Built the private-S3 document pipeline β€” pre-signed URLs, direct browser upload up to 20MB per file, progress tracking, thumbnails, replacement, and in-app preview β€” served at ~100ms response time
  • Built audit logging across finance, accounts, KYC, and operations actions down to individual button clicks β€” capturing user, role, request, status, IP, duration, and payload, letting the team verify the exact amount a branch employee entered and when
  • Migrated 5+ years of legacy data into the new CRM

Software Engineer I Β· Nighthack Labs

Sep 2023 – Dec 2024

SpektaCom (live cricket analytics)

  • Built shot-type filters, ball-type indicators, and multi-axis heatmap filtering (Vue.js, NestJS) wired to a real-time scoring feed for the venue's big screen, with end-to-end latency of 50–100ms from bat contact to on-screen display
  • Built the PowerShot Challenge web app β€” live power-value streaming and a self-updating leaderboard β€” run live during the Legends Premier League at Wankhede Stadium

Edstellar (corporate training platform)

  • Built a reusable component library (5–8 components, including input fields, a file-upload dropzone, and an async-select with role-based segregation) in React/Mantine
  • Restructured the codebase into feature folders and set up Redux for cross-route state
  • Integrated APIs with proper error handling and loading states

Full Stack Intern Β· Nighthack Labs

Apr 2023 – Aug 2023

  • Worked directly under the founder's mentorship, building responsive UIs (React + TypeScript) and backend APIs (FastAPI)
  • Contributed to a food-delivery application β€” authentication, core UI flows, and backend integrations
  • Assisted Edstellar with frontend feature delivery
