};Who I Am.
I'm a Lead Backend Architect and AI Engineer based in Bengaluru, with over 7 years of experience in the IT industry. I specialize in building scalable digital products — from business websites and custom apps to AI-powered automation and robust cloud infrastructure.
Currently serving as Technical Lead at Tunerlabs, I lead engineering teams, architect distributed systems, manage database design, and champion DevOps best practices. My work spans from early-stage product design to production-grade microservices handling millions of requests.
Whether you're a startup needing your first website, or an enterprise looking to scale your cloud backend — I bring the technical depth and strategic thinking to deliver.
