React · TypeScript · Angular · Node.js · Automation · Self-Hosting

Frontend engineer with 7+ years and hands-on backend experience. I lead with UI — design systems, mobile-first architecture, real-time interfaces — and go deep into the stack when it matters: REST APIs, microservices, WebSockets, Kafka. Currently at FourKites, previously at Light & Wonder.

I help teams discover automation opportunities and build agentic workflows — from n8n pipelines and AI integrations to full self-hosted infrastructure setup and support.

Automation & Agentic Workflows

Available for consulting

I find where
automation wins.

I have a knack for spotting bottlenecks and repetitive processes that can be automated — across business ops, publishing, data pipelines, and communication workflows. I've cut 14-hour tasks to 3 hours, doubled publication reach, and built agentic AI appointment systems from scratch.

Whether it's wiring up n8n workflows, building AI-powered agents, integrating APIs, or setting up the entire self-hosted infrastructure — I can help you assess, design, and ship it.

Writing

🖊 Blog · Hindi / Marathi
Parivartak

My non-technical blog where I write about poetry (Hindi/Marathi), Digital Wellbeing, Gandhi-Ambedkar philosophy, and social change. Parivartak means "transformer" — reflecting the belief that ideas and words can shift perspectives.

💡 Interests
Beyond Code

Keen on poetry in Hindi and Marathi. Passionate about Digital Wellbeing — thoughtful use of technology in everyday life. Student of Gandhi-Ambedkar political philosophy. Active open-source contributor who believes software can serve social good.

Let's build
something real.

Open to full-stack roles, automation consulting, and open-source collaboration. Based in Pune — comfortable with remote and async teams globally.
