About

Building things that
hold up in production.

I'm a Frontend and MERN Stack Engineer based in Delhi NCR with 2+ years of professional experience delivering React applications for enterprise clients at scale.

At Tech Mahindra, I worked on an internal portal for British Telecommunications (BT) — real production, real users, real pressure. I reduced load time by 40%, fixed a memory leak that was crashing the app for 22% of users, and enforced TypeScript standards that stopped runtime errors from ever reaching production.

After professional experience, I independently built ShopScale and DevDiscuss — both live, both engineered from scratch, both architecturally honest. I also got a PR merged into Checkmate, a production B2B uptime monitoring tool by Bluewave Labs.

I care about performance, correctness, and code that the next engineer can read.

Reduced page load time by 40% (3s → 1.8s) via useMemo, useCallback, and route-based code-splitting — directly improved Core Web Vitals scores.
Diagnosed and resolved a critical memory leak using useEffect cleanup patterns, reducing crash rate by 22%.
Integrated RESTful APIs with client-side request caching, reducing redundant calls by 30%.
Enforced TypeScript strict mode across code reviews, eliminating runtime type errors in production.
Delivered production React features across Agile sprint cycles with cross-functional international teams.

Projects

Things I've built.

Project 01

ShopScale

Full-stack MERN e-commerce platform. JWT auth, role-based access control, debounced product search, and an order snapshot system that preserves purchase-time pricing — engineered from scratch, not a tutorial clone.

JWT authentication + bcrypt + RBAC middleware
MVC REST API with Mongoose population and Axios interceptors
Debounced search, MongoDB regex, server-side pagination
Order snapshot preserves price at purchase time
Vitest + RTL test coverage — Login, ProductList, Cart

Project 02

DevDiscuss

Live developer Q&A platform with dual-layer auth, normalized MongoDB schema, and production-grade server architecture.

Normalized schema reduced query payload by 35%
DB-first startup + graceful SIGINT/SIGTERM shutdown
Dual-layer auth: frontend guards + backend JWT middleware
Bulk vote API, threaded answers, ownership authorization

Open Source

Checkmate — Bluewave Labs

Production B2B uptime monitoring tool. Contributed a PATCH endpoint for bulk notification management across monitors.

PATCH /monitors/notifications — add, remove, set actions
Zod validation with .refine() for conditional constraints
teamId-scoped security — prevents cross-team injection
Iterated through 4 review cycles to merge
