I'm a backend-focused SDE 3 and Team Lead. Over the past 4 years at a B2B SaaS startup, I progressed from SDE 1 to leading a cross-functional pod that owns our core workflow engine (a low-code automation tool similar to Zapier).

A few recent highlights: - Architected an interpreter that translates user workflows into executable infrastructure, dynamically orchestrating compute for heavy ML/GenAI workloads. - Led the design and implementation of a usage-based credit billing system that directly impacts revenue. - Helped design our multi-tenant, multi-region application architecture for global data compliance. - Rewrote our GenAI application to let enterprise clients talk to an LLM to analyze customer feedback data.

I specialize in distributed systems and backend architecture.

Seeking Founding Engineer, Senior IC, or Team Lead roles.

I specialize in 0→1 backend architecture and scaling systems. Currently, I lead a 7-person pod at a high-growth SaaS, where I joined as the 8th engineer.

Highlights:

    Revenue Engineering: Architected a credit-based billing & usage engine across GenAI and workflow modules, unlocking new monetization.

    Scale: Optimized ingestion pipelines handling terabytes of data, doubling throughput to support 1,000+ concurrent enterprise workflows.

    Efficiency: Led infra initiatives that cut costs by 23% and reduced customer onboarding time from 1 day to 1 hour.

    Founder Context: Built and ran a side project to 30k+ DAU.

I think like a founder: Smart India Hackathon winner, built side projects with 100,000+ users, and consistently drive business impact (23% infrastructure cost reduction, 95% error reduction). I excel at turning technical solutions into measurable business outcomes.

Seeking founding engineer or senior roles where entrepreneurial mindset meets technical leadership.

I've architected multi-tenant B2B SaaS platforms and led cross-functional teams to deliver features significantly enhancing UX (e.g., reducing result generation time by 64%). Proven ability to build core systems like event-driven billing platforms.

I currently lead the developement of the compute orchestration tool (think n8n but for processing big data) and infrastructure team at the place I work, along with contributing to other modules which include a GenAI product and data ingestion from various sources.

Seeking a founding engineer or SDE 3 Lead role.
