Software Engineer II @ PagarBook · Bengaluru, India

$ cat about.txt

I like owning a problem from the schema to the screen. That usually means NestJS, PostgreSQL and React, but the stack matters less to me than the habit: understand the thing properly, then build it once.

Most of my instinct goes to the half nobody screenshots — what happens when the job runs, whether the number is actually measuring what everyone thinks it is, what breaks at 10x. I care how the front feels. I just don't trust it until I know what's under it.

Software Engineer II at PagarBook. Maintainer at Team Shiksha, where I run the board and help people ship their first open-source PR. Previously core at Real Dev Squad.

Jun 2026 — Present · Bengaluru

Software Engineer II @ PagarBook

  • + Shipped Probation Management solo across backend and web — policies, permissions and accrual jobs that withhold leave credits during probation. Highest-adoption release of the quarter.
  • + Built a pivot-table report builder — engine, extractors and builder UI — in eight days, with every hot aggregation index-backed.
  • + Took PagarBook Tasks from an internal hackathon to production in under a day: status-transition cron, S3 photo proof, Razorpay subscriptions.
  • + Built the PagarBook iD storefront in Next.js with Razorpay checkout, so the device sells self-serve instead of through a sales agent.

  • + Set up CI/CD workflows for testing and pull-request validation, cutting deployment times and raising code quality.

Jun 2024 — Sep 2024 · Noida, On-site
