Engineering leadership · 3.5 years

3.5 years. Four platforms. One engineer who owned the brief, the architecture, and the ship.

I partner directly with the Ministry of Education and 100+ universities — gathering real requirements, designing the systems, and mentoring the engineers who keep them running.

How I operate

"Give me an ambiguous mandate and a deadline. I'll return a shipped platform, a maintainable codebase, and a team that can run it without me."

Who I deliver across

One architect, many stakeholders

I translate an ambiguous government mandate into shipped software — sitting between policy, regulators, institutions and the engineers who keep it all running.

Full-Stack Engineer & Solutions Architect · Growing into Product & Gen AI

Smarth eGov × Ministry of Education (Samarth)

  • Built four enterprise modules end to end (schema, API, React UI) from scratch — MPDD, Affiliation, Estate, and Residence Allocation — for India's national university platform, owning every layer from requirement discovery to production.
  • Designed a multi-tenant foundation (institution-scoped data isolation) so a single codebase serves universities across India with zero cross-institution data leakage.
  • Built a FIFO inventory engine with a 4-bucket stock invariant routed through a single atomic mutator — eliminating stock corruption and double-allocation under high-volume load (200+ daily issues).
  • Engineered an 11-state allocation workflow with append-only audit logging and idempotent, time-boxed reservations; designed a 14-verb RBAC system with cloneable role templates and a "view-as-role" inspector.
  • Drove direct client & stakeholder requirement-gathering, then led a v1→v2 re-architecture that removed years of technical debt and standardised UX for non-technical operators.
  • Mentored junior engineers, ran code reviews, and set documentation and architecture-decision standards across modules.
