Building high-performance web applications at scale — leading the frontend at Hindustan Times, where my team serves 300M+ monthly page views with Next.js and AI-powered features.
I'm a Tech Lead at Hindustan Times with 5+ years of experience building high-performance web applications serving millions of users daily. Currently leading the frontend engineering of LiveHindustan.com — one of India's largest Hindi news platforms.
I specialise in Next.js SSR/ISR architecture, Core Web Vitals optimisation, and integrating AI-powered features into high-traffic production environments.
Led frontend engineering — architecting SSR/ISR pipelines with Next.js, integrating AI-powered content summarisation and recommendations, and driving Core Web Vitals improvements across the entire platform under real-time high-traffic conditions.
Led full migration to Next.js SSR + ISR architecture delivering 300M+ monthly page views. Drastically improved Core Web Vitals — LCP <1.5s, CLS <0.01 — via optimised hydration, lazy loading, and code splitting.
Built and published the official Hindustan Times JavaScript SDK, enabling third-party platforms to seamlessly embed real-time news feeds with a single API call. Powers widgets across partner sites.
Built a scalable patient monitoring dashboard for an IoT-driven elder-care management system. Designed real-time data prioritisation logic that processed thousands of simultaneous live device records, with visual alerts and patient status views for care teams.
Production-ready pipelines with GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini — streaming, tool-calling, and multi-agent orchestration.
End-to-end retrieval-augmented generation with semantic chunking, re-ranking, and hybrid search for accurate, grounded responses.
Real-time object detection, pose estimation, and OCR pipelines; deployed to edge for sub-50ms inference in mobile apps.
Parameter-efficient fine-tuning of open-source LLMs on custom datasets with LoRA/QLoRA on consumer and cloud GPUs.
Image, audio, and video generation integrated into product workflows — DALL·E, Stable Diffusion, Sora, and ElevenLabs APIs.
Model versioning, A/B evaluation, and high-throughput inference serving with auto-scaling GPU pods in production.
Every component assembled. Every system checked. Ready to build something extraordinary.
Have an exciting project? I'm always open to new opportunities and collaborations.
