Experience

Here is the list of companies that I worked for and what I learned from each one of them.

Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion.

Like most developers, I spend a lot of my time solving problems for the company I work for. So, here I list them down.

LinkedIn

Senior Software Engineer - UI | Mar 2025 - present

I joined the LinkedIn Business Platform team and am excited to see what new problem I will get to work on.

Flipkart

UI Developer III | Apr 2022 - Mar 2025
UI Developer II  | Sep 2019 - Mar 2022
UI Developer     | Mar 2018 - Sep 2019

I joined the Ads Platform team at Flipkart in early 2018 and was part of the UI team responsible for managing the frontend of the Ads Platform. During my tenure, I contributed to multiple projects, one of the most notable being the integration with Hotstar to enable video advertisements on the platform. Additionally, I played a key role in enabling multi-language support on Flipkart.

After my tenure in Ads, I transitioned to the Flipkart Wholesale team, where I was involved in building the warehouse platform from the ground up. I led a team of 4-5 developers, mentored them and worked with the leadership to create an application that met all the requirements and also was highly configurable to the changing requirements. After launch and stabilization, only one engineer was required to maintain the UI application. Additionally, I developed an automation testing framework on top of Selenium to test the warehouse platform and Flipkart Wholesale mobile applications. For this I worked with 2 test engineers to understand their requirement and came up with a solution that was able test the entire warehouse workflow in ~30 minutes. My final project in Flipkart Wholesale was to create a no-code platform where a designer or an engineer can quickly create a new widget and release it. This helped saved multiple man-hour of designers, frontend and backend engineers by eliminating the back-and-forth discussion that was required earlier to create a widget.

Later, I had the opportunity to work on Shopsy, Shopsy has >50 million active users. Here I led the development of the web platform. Our team undertook a complete rewrite of the platform using Next.js, consolidating both mobile and desktop experiences within a single codebase. This initiative aimed to enhance web vitals, reduce technical debt, improve developer productivity, and minimize boilerplate code.

My day-to-day responsibilities revolved around problem-solving. This includes gathering requirements from product teams, collaborating with designers to craft intuitive user experiences, finalizing contracts with backend teams, implementing solutions, conducting testing and deployment, mentoring juniors, aligning team with the changes, documenting architecture and design decisions and ensuring the ongoing maintenance and optimization of these features. Post release we saw an improvement of ~5% in the conversion rate on the web platform.

OnGrid

Software Developer | Sep 2015 - Mar 2018

When I joined OnGrid, the company was just a week old and had only 4 developers. Though the size of the dev team remained constant while I was working there, the company grew many folds. We even got listed in YourStory's top 30 tech startups in India.

Here I implemented multiple solutions from scratch, made sure that iteration on these solutions should be fast and easy, and at the same time the solution should be intuitive, responsive, and maintainable. I was solely responsible for both customer and operations website. I also setup multiple dashboards which helped different teams in the organization in the decision making and also gamified the the monotonous task that operations executives had to do on a daily basis.
