Where I've worked and what I've built
Fooddle
02/2026 - PresentSoftware Engineer
- Took Fooddle from a blank repository to a live platform serving 15,000+ users every day, with about US$12K in average transaction value, on a Django REST backend and Expo/React Native apps for customers and vendors.
- Owned the entire money path: Razorpay payments with tax and TCS calculation, a platform-fee waiver threshold and per-shop bank accounts, backed by a ledger that reconciles every single transaction.
- Built a Go worker on AWS SQS that moves bill PDFs, vendor payout sheets, mail, catalog sync and payment reconciliation off the request path, keeping checkout fast while thousands of orders flow through.
- Then attacked my own production stack: a security review and a 47,052-request load test over 17 minutes held p95 latency at 709 ms with a 0.03% error rate at 100 concurrent users, and the breaking point sits at 4,000-6,000.

05/2024 - 08/2024Nights and Weekends Programme
- Developed an acoustic fire suppression project exploring sound-based fire control, collaborating with a global builder community to iterate on the concept.
- Design targets: 30-100 Hz at 100-120 dB, 10-30 cm range, 5-15 s suppression time, 20-30 test trials and a 60-80% target success rate on a small controlled flame.
Adobe Inc.
08/2023 - 11/2023Project Intern
- Completed a project-based work experience program focused on Adobe Express and industry-standard creative workflows.
- Collaborated with a 4-member team to develop 5 projects and deliver 10 creative deliverables, incorporating feedback and iterative design improvements.
Featured Projects
Some things I've created
Hackathon Project
A security firewall in front of LLM applications that inspects every prompt and response for prompt injection, encoded payloads and data leaks. Eight detectors run in three tiers (unicode and encoding pre-processing, regex and YARA rules, ML classifiers), and a YAML policy engine decides to allow, sanitize, challenge or block in real time. Ships with a live operator console, a feedback loop for true/false positives, and benchmarks reporting precision, recall, F1 and false-positive rate.
- Built a bidirectional LLM security gateway that screens every prompt and response through 8 detectors across 3 tiers (unicode and encoding pre-processing, regex and YARA rules, ML classifiers), mapped to OWASP LLM Top 10 risks.
Public Benefit Project
A cloud-based platform that lets hospitals exchange patient data securely and in real time through a unified API layer, cutting through the fragmentation of siloed hospital record systems. Built with role-based access control and a scalable patient identity system so multiple institutions can coordinate care without compromising privacy.
- Built a cloud-based healthcare interoperability platform enabling secure real-time hospital data exchange using APIs.
Hackathon Project
A hybrid blockchain platform for fighting counterfeit goods across the supply chain: manufacturers mint an NFT for each product, distributors log shipment checkpoints on-chain, and consumers scan a secure QR code to instantly verify a product's authenticity and full chain of custody.
