Tech Lead at Krapton with 8 years of experience leading products from business requirement to production. I combine delivery ownership, architecture, stakeholder alignment, and hands-on full-stack engineering. Previously at Hindustan Times, I helped build and scale news platforms serving 300M+ monthly page views with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and engineering quality.
I'm a Tech Lead at Krapton with 8 years of experience translating client goals into practical roadmaps and dependable releases. I coordinate delivery, set technical direction, prioritise the work, review implementation quality, and keep stakeholders aligned.
From February 2023 to December 2025, I worked at Hindustan Times on high-traffic news products, including LiveHindustan.com. That experience combines engineering depth with the judgement needed to manage scope, dependencies, blockers, and production risk at 300M+ monthly page-view scale.
I own the path from business requirement to production release. That means planning delivery, shaping architecture, communicating with clients, enabling developers, reviewing critical code, and stepping into the stack wherever the team needs hands-on support.
Convert business goals into scope, milestones, owners, dependencies, priorities, and realistic release plans across product, design, engineering, and QA.
Define frontend, backend, API, database, caching, integration, security, and deployment patterns that fit the product today and scale tomorrow.
Develop production features across React and Next.js interfaces, Node.js and PHP services, APIs, MySQL, Redis, commerce platforms, and third-party integrations.
Give clients and teams a clear view of progress, decisions, delivery confidence, upcoming priorities, dependencies, and required actions.
Review critical changes for correctness, readability, performance, security, testability, and architectural consistency while coaching developers.
Translate business needs into engineering decisions and explain technical options, trade-offs, progress, and impact in language every stakeholder can act on.
Sequence work by value, urgency, effort, dependency, and risk; clarify acceptance criteria and unblock developers so the team can maintain momentum.
Identify delivery and technical risks early, drive mitigation, monitor performance and reliability, and keep releases safe, observable, and supportable.
