A few highlights
Five projects pulled from the resume — the ones worth a story. No live demos, no public repos; the work is under NDA. Cards expand to the full case.
Experience
Software Engineer (Contract)
International Engineering Contracts — USA & IndiaRemote
Enterprise Solutions & Logic Design
- Led a unified task management mobile app: geofenced and Wi-Fi-restricted attendance, integrated WebRTC calling with a private TURN server, recurring task engines, and automated analytics reports.
- Engineered a custom WebRTC calling solution end-to-end, including manual setup and configuration of a private TURN server for reliable peer-to-peer connectivity.
- Built an enterprise HRMS attendance engine triggered by system login/logout via group policies and PowerShell scripts; implemented tiered email escalations for late logins, multi-role hierarchy (Master Admin, HR, Department Head, Managers), and full database audit logs.
- Built a gaming analytics platform: weekly insights, secure email distribution, OTP verification, 5-second signed URLs for PDF previews, and an Excel logic engine with modifiable tax/admin formulas and data rollback.
High-Availability Infrastructure & Web3 Operations
- Provisioned and maintained a Solana Mainnet-Beta and Testnet validator with 99.9% uptime and 99% voting accuracy. Hardware optimization (NVMe health, CPU affinity), regular Agave version upgrades with deprecated-flag management, and automated identity-wallet balance monitoring.
- Engineered a real-time USDT settlement engine and led its V1 to V2 migration with minimal downtime. The V2 audit trail was automated from day one; third-party API calls were rate-limited to survive provider degradation.
- Led a team of 3 to deliver a Web3 presale platform on a 14-day deadline using Reown AppKit dual-wallet integration and a dual RPC architecture, achieving 100% transaction finality.
Lead Backend Developer (Contract)
Jain Community PlatformRemote
- Architected a scalable backend ecosystem supporting 5,000+ members, with a notifications engine and real-time attending visibility for community events.
- Built an Events & Updates module with granular role-based edit rights and RSVP opt-in/out with real-time participation tracking.
- Developed a relationship-mapping engine and searchable directories with advanced filtering; optimized database throughput by 40% via query normalization and strategic indexing for sub-second multi-parameter searches.
- Implemented a secure matrimonial portal with privacy-centric opt-out controls and OTP-based authentication to protect sensitive member PII.
Founder & Lead Systems Engineer
Google Maps Ranking VentureAhmedabad, India
- Conceived, engineered, and operated a proprietary SEO tool to optimize business visibility in Google Search map widgets through organic traffic simulation.
- Built sophisticated web crawling modules and data-scraping scripts to monitor ranking-algorithm changes and surface real-time performance analytics.
- Managed the full product lifecycle from independent R&D through B2B development, running trials with multiple local businesses.
Software Engineer I
Genuin Inc.Ahmedabad, India
System Architecture & Database Engineering
- Architected the Genuin Core package, a centralized abstraction layer over Aerospike, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB. It decoupled persistence from application logic across the microservices fleet.
- Spearheaded the migration from SQS-based notifications to a Kafka architecture for high-throughput event streams with zero message loss.
- Built standalone database connector packages standardizing data access patterns and authored Node.js migration scripts for complex legacy data transformations.
- Cut production API response times by 20% with a caching layer behind the abstraction. Centralized observability moved to the ELK stack.
Leadership
- Mentored 5 interns across backend and data science domains; enforced production-grade code quality through detailed peer reviews and documentation standards.
- Led sprint retrospectives and contributed to architectural decisions including the adoption of repository patterns for maintainability.
Software Engineer Intern
Genuin Inc.Ahmedabad, India
- Improved feed relevance by optimizing Elasticsearch queries and search algorithms.
- Engineered AWS ECS cron jobs for automated PostgreSQL ↔ Elasticsearch synchronization to maintain cross-layer consistency.
- Built an asynchronous Python microservice for automated video transcript generation using Boto3 and FFmpeg.
- Implemented Docker and Jenkins CI/CD pipelines to automate development workflows.
Software Tester
Cogno AI (acquired by Exotel)Remote
- Executed comprehensive QA on internal products (CoBrowsing, LiveChat); built automated regression suites with Selenium and Python for AI chatbots across WhatsApp, Google, and Alexa.
- Performed security and quality checks including SQL-injection testing and NLP-based validation for multilingual chatbot interactions.
