Turning ideas
into digital
reality

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.

What I Do
As Tech Lead & Full-Stack Developer

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.

Delivery

Plan & Coordinate Projects

Convert business goals into scope, milestones, owners, dependencies, priorities, and realistic release plans across product, design, engineering, and QA.

Architecture

Design Full-Stack Solutions

Define frontend, backend, API, database, caching, integration, security, and deployment patterns that fit the product today and scale tomorrow.

Hands-On

Build Across the Stack

Develop production features across React and Next.js interfaces, Node.js and PHP services, APIs, MySQL, Redis, commerce platforms, and third-party integrations.

Visibility

Lead Weekly Status Reviews

Give clients and teams a clear view of progress, decisions, delivery confidence, upcoming priorities, dependencies, and required actions.

Quality

Review Code & Pull Requests

Review critical changes for correctness, readability, performance, security, testability, and architectural consistency while coaching developers.

Alignment

Connect Clients & Developers

Translate business needs into engineering decisions and explain technical options, trade-offs, progress, and impact in language every stakeholder can act on.

Team

Prioritise & Enable Execution

Sequence work by value, urgency, effort, dependency, and risk; clarify acceptance criteria and unblock developers so the team can maintain momentum.

Reliability

Control Risk & Production Quality

Identify delivery and technical risks early, drive mitigation, monitor performance and reliability, and keep releases safe, observable, and supportable.
