AI can build almost anything now.
So building was never the hard part.
Knowing what to build — how — and why is.
— that's the craft —
Magic like that isn't born. It's earned.

Origin
As a kid I opened every gift just to see how it worked — then turned the motor into a boat. Science fairs came next. Three reached state level.
Pilot, doctor, scientist — every dream was a fascination. Building was the only one that stuck.
Then, in 2014, my first line of code. Software was simply the easiest way to build — parts became code, bugs became R&D, results came instantly.
Years taught me the real trick: how well you build it barely matters. What matters is whether the problem is real, worth solving — and whether your solution is 10x better than anything that already exists.

Best work

Agent Swarm

Transformers — Hinge Health

Built a swarm of AI agents to kick off incident investigations the moment an alert is triggered. The agents autonomously gather logs, metrics, and relevant data across the stack — then summarize and present it in a Slack thread for the on-call engineer. This has cut down incident response times by 30% and reduced alert fatigue, while making it easier for engineers to stay on top of production issues.

Wedding Management

Mangalam - Xccessor Innovations

One wedding, 100+ families, and a thousand updates that used to live in phone calls and group chats. Built the platform that put the schedule, RSVPs, and a live event feed in one place — real-time, on React and Firebase, shipped fast enough to matter. Coordination chaos became a feed every family trusted; the software disappeared and the event came forward.

Car Rentals

Carvar - Affordable Car Rentals in Bangalore

Self-drive rentals in Bangalore were expensive, clunky to book, or both. Built the platform end-to-end — booking, fleet management, and returns automated on React, Next.js, and PostgreSQL — so renting a car became as simple as ordering anything else online, at prices that undercut the incumbents.
