Software engineer, building the half of the product nobody sees.

Backend systems, distributed messaging, and retrieval pipelines.

Final-year Computer Science student at BIT Mesra. I work on APIs, queues, schemas, and RAG — most recently on vehicle diagnostics infrastructure at Hero MotoCorp.

Next.jsNode.jsPostgreSQLRedisRabbitMQJWTTailwindGemini

Contributed to the VCI (Vehicle Communication Interface) app, used internally for end-of-line firmware updates and proof-of-concept vehicle diagnostics.
Wrote backend API routes in Next.js against a PostgreSQL database, covering driver registration and the face-authentication flow.
Added role-based access control using JWT, with sessions stored in Redis.
Worked on the messaging layer with RabbitMQ, moving service-to-service calls onto queues so a slow consumer wouldn't hold up the rest of the pipeline.
Cleaned and prepared roughly 4M EV telemetry records across 128 features to feed an adaptive time-to-empty prediction model the ML team was building.
Sat in with the cloud team on VCI's AWS deployment and picked up the basics of EC2, S3, and containerized builds.

Projects

Built to find out whether I could.

ContextGrid

Multimodal RAG platform

Next.jsFastAPILangChainChromaDBGemini

Hold a conversation with PDFs, images, and structured documents through semantic search.
Ingestion and vector-indexing pipeline on FastAPI and ChromaDB, with distributed storage and low-latency retrieval over embeddings.
Next.js interface with file uploads, chat history, and streaming responses.

EphemChat

Chat rooms that delete themselves

Next.jsNode.jsRedisWebSockets

Rooms, messages, and memberships expire on their own through TTL-based Redis keys — hashes, lists, sets — so nothing is persisted.
Real-time messaging over WebSockets, with TTL expiry synchronized on room start or first message sent.
