I build the interfaces people work in.

Full-stack engineer with a design mind. 13 years in, based in Bengaluru.

I joined Tracxn in 2015 as a software engineer. I am VP of Technology now. Most of the job is the team, the hiring and what we build next. I still write a lot of code.

Right now that code is a customer-facing AI assistant over private-market data, and 106 word-sized chart types built on my own time.

Open to talking about architecture, hiring loops and open source.
