about
I build low-latency, horizontally-scalable systems — distributed messaging, streaming pipelines, and the algorithms that keep them fast.
I'm a Software Engineering undergrad at DTU (B.Tech SE, 2027) focused on backend and systems work — Redis Pub/Sub, Kafka decoupling, WebSockets presence, fault-tolerant monorepos. I've shipped these in production as an AI Associate Intern at NMG Technologies and a web development intern at IIT Ropar (VLED Labs).
On the algorithmic side I hold Knight status on LeetCode (peak rating 1912, top 5%) and have solved 600+ problems across platforms — the same rigor I bring to distributed systems design and low-latency engineering.
I care about uptime, throughput, and clean failure modes: building systems that stay alive when infrastructure doesn't.

AI Associate Intern
NMG Technologies · New Delhi, India
Serverless platform engineering on Astro + Supabase for a centralized hackathon registration system.
Architected a unified registration platform replacing 5+ isolated event forms, onboarding 5000+ users in month one on infrastructure built for 50,000+ monthly registrations.
Automated 100% of user notifications across 3 lifecycle stages via Supabase PostgreSQL triggers, Edge Functions, and the Brevo API — saving 21+ hours of manual ops per event.
Accelerated site load speed by 50% and improved UX metrics by 30% with lightweight metadata placeholder frames served before asset hydration.
