I've spent the last 8+ years building AI products, distributed systems, and developer tools from leading engineering teams to co-founding an AI startup. I enjoy solving hard infrastructure problems with AI, particularly around autonomous agents, LLM systems, retrieval, observability, and scalable backend architecture. Previously, I was Founding Engineer & CTO at Finallayer, where I built AI-powered video intelligence and content automation products. I'm passionate about building products that make developers more productive and turn cutting-edge AI into practical, reliable systems.

Work Experience

Co-Founder at AI Stealth Startup
February 1, 2026 - April 1, 2026
Co-founded an autonomous SRE agent startup focused on automated production debugging. Built an autonomous layer ingesting telemetry from observability platforms (Grafana, Sentry), correlating it with codebase and infrastructure state to detect, diagnose, and remediate production incidents. Developed an intelligent alert correlation engine to reduce thousands of alerts into a single root cause analysis (RCA) in under 5 minutes by mapping service dependencies across infrastructure and code levels. Implemented automated code recommendations that analyze root causes, propose precise code patches/infrastructure upgrades, and generate pull requests to reduce MTTR. Added organization-level intelligence to continuously learn from agent interactions, historical incident data, and connected integrations to improve diagnostics over time.
Founding Engineer (CTO) at Finallayer
November 1, 2024 - January 1, 2026
Led engineering and technical strategy for AI-powered creative workflow products. Built a video search agent enabling users to upload video libraries and find matching clips across and within individual videos using advanced indexing and retrieval. Pioneered prompt-based needle clip search for YouTube to retrieve precise timestamps from YouTube videos, preceding native clip search. Developed social media/influencer identity agents that suggest content topics and generate ready-to-publish posts tailored to user voice and audience. Created a topic recommendation algorithm based on user engagement patterns, and a browser plugin to save ideas/inspiration for later use. Designed smart LLM memory management for persistent organizational/contextual memory and optimized LLM cost and latency across the system.
Senior Staff Engineer at Rizzle
March 1, 2023 - August 1, 2024
Led a backend engineering team for a Text to Video product, taking the project from concept to completion with an emphasis on efficiency and scalability. Developed advanced video-audio encoding solutions using FFmpeg for high-quality customized outputs. Automated video generation via WebGL integration with After Effects templates. Built GPU deployment for the video creation pipeline to significantly improve processing speed and overall efficiency. Architected and built an automated map generation platform for prompt-to-map, plus a GeoJSON search engine for geospatial retrieval. Implemented smart-crop using OpenCV and machine learning to automate precise cropping while preserving key visual elements.
Senior Software Developer (SDE-II) at Indiabulls
January 1, 2020 - February 1, 2023
Led the backend team for an online video consultation platform serving India and Dubai, integrating Stripe and Dhani-Wallet for payments. Developed Celery-based microservices for asynchronous processing and integrated RabbitMQ for SMS queuing. Built prescription PDF generation and a healthcare portal for digital handling of doctor handwritten prescriptions. Added a caching layer on top of MySQL using Apache Ignite and implemented MySQL CDC integration via Debezium Kafka connector. Worked on an ML-based ticket classification system for Gojek customer support, designed a cost optimization algorithm for KORE data plan selection, developed a product comparison plugin for Walmart (Amazon comparison), and worked on a warehouse management system for Nykaa.
Back-End Developer (SDE-I) at Fluke
July 1, 2019 - January 1, 2020
Worked on an asset management and monitoring platform for IoT devices, including development of a Kafka consumer to ingest IoT data streams. Focused on building reliable stream-processing ingestion components.
Full-Stack Developer (Intern) at Lithion Power
May 1, 2018 - July 1, 2018
Built real-time tracking and management backend for IoT assets using Apache Kafka for data stream processing. Developed an admin portal from scratch using Angular 6.
