Professional Summary

Senior Full-Stack & AI Engineer with 6+ years architecting systems end-to-end — and shipping LLM systems that hold up in production: a real-time voice agent, LLM-as-judge eval pipelines validated against human graders, sandboxed execution of untrusted code, and agentic developer workflows (coding agents, MCP servers). At BMW (via Alten) I build backend and infrastructure — event-driven AWS workflows, Kubernetes, Terraform — and drive the team's AI initiatives on a large-scale engineering platform. At Airbus I solo-built ABAcS — a budgeting platform governing a €500M+ annual budget for 1,500 users across five countries, cutting allocation cycles 70% — and ECM, a publishing app that eliminated ~4,700 hours of specialist work. Solo-founded KodeRyu — a live AI voice interviewer that conducts real spoken technical interviews. IIT Madras alum.

Experience

KodeRyu — Solo Founder (Full-Stack & AI Engineer)

Jan 2026 – Present

AI voice interviewer · Live at koderyu.com · heading to public launch

  • Built KodeRyu solo end-to-end — an AI voice interviewer that conducts real spoken technical interviews across voice, DSA and system design — on a React 18 / Express / Postgres monorepo (28 Prisma models, 60+ services, a 502-question bank).
  • Built a voice agent that holds a natural spoken interview in real time — streaming speech-to-text (Deepgram) into an LLM and back through self-hosted TTS (Kokoro, chosen for latency and unit cost) fast enough to feel like live conversation, recovering when candidates interrupt or go off-script, and giving progressively stronger hints when they're stuck.
  • Executes untrusted candidate code in 5 languages (Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, Go) inside a Docker + nsjail sandbox on a BullMQ worker pool, with sub-second cold starts.
  • LLM-as-judge grading that matches human expert graders — κ=0.92 agreement on a 13-criterion rubric — regression-tested by simulating 12 distinct candidate types through an automated evaluation harness.
  • Shipped the full SaaS solo — Clerk auth, Razorpay tier-gated INR payments, an OWASP Top 10 security pass, DPDP-Act data handling (export + erasure), and PostHog + Sentry + GA4 telemetry.

Tech: React 18, TypeScript, Express, Postgres, Prisma, BullMQ, Kafka, FastAPI, Docker, nsjail, Claude Code

Alten — Senior Software Engineer

Mar 2021 – Present

Bangalore, India · Clients: Airbus (2021–2026) → BMW (Jul 2026–present)

BMW — Senior Full-Stack Developer · Backend, Infra & AI Initiatives

Jul 2026 – Present

Internal engineering-tools platform — web apps on Kubernetes delegating heavy calculations to event-driven AWS workflows · working directly with BMW's engineering team in Germany

  • Own the team's AI engineering roadmap — scoping the highest-leverage workflows across a 6–8 engineer team and building the agentic layer that automates them: coding agents, MCP servers connecting internal systems to AI tooling, and GitHub Copilot practices.
  • Build backend services across a large Nx monorepo of engineering tools — Node/NestJS APIs that delegate heavy engineering calculations to event-driven AWS workflows (SQS, Step Functions, AWS Batch, Lambda, EventBridge), with DynamoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis and S3 holding job state and results.
  • Work the platform's infrastructure — Kubernetes-hosted services with GitOps deployments (ArgoCD, Helm), Terraform-provisioned AWS, and live job updates streamed to browsers over WebSockets/SSE.

Tech: TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, Nx, AWS (SQS, Step Functions, Batch, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3), PostgreSQL, Redis, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Copilot, MCP

ABAcS Budgeting Tool (Airbus)

Apr 2023 – Jul 2026

Tracks and allocates €500M+ annual budget across 1,500 users (France, Germany, UK, Spain, India)

  • Solo-architected and delivered the full-stack budgeting platform end-to-end — governing €500M+/yr (€1.5B+ cumulative over 3+ years live) — cutting the allocation cycle 70% and compressing audit prep from days to hours; work conventionally staffed by a 3–5 engineer team.
  • Designed a multi-tiered role-based access layer adaptable to German, EU and Indian financial regulations, with EU-guideline encryption (CryptoJS) and dashboards tailored to 6 organizational levels.
  • Integrated Google Sheets as the sanctioned live system of record with a caching layer and global search, keeping a governance-grade platform responsive at scale.
  • Interviewed users across all 6 organizational levels and shipped a feedback-telemetry loop that accelerated bug resolution — a platform live and audited for 3+ years.

Tech: JavaScript, React, Material UI, Google Apps Script, Google Sheets API, CryptoJS

ECM Tool (Airbus)

Sep 2025 – Mar 2026

Desktop app replacing a legacy Excel-macro workflow for publishing classified documents to the central archive

  • Architected and shipped the full Electron + React + Node desktop app end-to-end, cutting per-document publishing from 2–3 hours to 10–15 minutes (~90%) — ~4,700 specialist hours eliminated across 2,000+ documents to date (~2.4 person-years).
  • Implemented OLE container extraction and CFB-library integration to parse binary compound-file structures embedded inside Word documents — deep-systems debugging most workflows never touch.
  • Built a PDF processing pipeline and a modular plugin (signature removal, metadata extraction, batch processing) — composable workflows that let one publisher sustain a manual team's throughput.

Tech: Electron, React, Node.js, JavaScript, AdmZip, PDF-lib

Quality Tracker Tool (Airbus M&P)

Nov 2022 – Feb 2023

Full-stack supply-chain quality tracker with automated alerts and approval workflows

  • Spearheaded the solo full-stack build in 2 months, delivered to 500+ users across 5 countries, then handed it to a 2–3 engineer team that extended it — solo output that became a product's foundation.
  • Cut the quality-issue approval cycle from 1–2 days to 2–3 hours (~85–92%) — same-day resolution of issues that used to leave production exposed for days — with zero bug-induced downtime after launch.
  • Ran user interviews and cross-functional scoping end-to-end before writing code, so the feature set was right the first time.

Tech: JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Google Sheets (DB), Apps Script, AppSheet

MPO (Airbus Skywise / Palantir Foundry)

Nov 2021 – Oct 2022

Airbus maintenance-program optimization platform — per-task interval optimization across single-, multi-operator and fleet-wide exercises · 8,000+ operator accounts

  • Owned the consumption/delivery layer of a platform carrying a multi-million-euro annual cost-avoidance and service-revenue business case — building the pipeline (React-rendered HTML → headless Chromium → paginated PDF) that produces the signed PDF dossiers delivering each optimized maintenance program to operators — the revenue-carrying deliverable they receive.
  • Built the task-report analysis dashboard front-end — the graphs, tables, filters and range-selection views operators use to explore fleet reliability data (task reports by interval, by aircraft age, operational interruptions) served from Palantir Foundry.
  • Hardened reliability with Jest unit and integration coverage and served as the team's incident-review focal, resolving 15+ critical production defects on a live revenue product.

Tech: Node.js, React, Redux, Palantir Foundry, AWS, Jenkins, Jest

Composite Compatibility Tool (Airbus CCT)

Mar 2021 – Oct 2021

Web app automating compatibility detection for composite materials in aircraft manufacturing

  • Built the web app from scratch as a 2-engineer team — owning the UI/UX with global search, ag-Grid tables and Firebase auth — cutting the composite-material testing cycle by 80%.
  • Supported the backend with PostgreSQL schema design and the APIs powering composite-material compatibility and downstream material-validation flows.

Tech: TypeScript, Angular, Jest, PostgreSQL, ASP.NET

Claim Therapist — Software Engineer

May 2020 – Jul 2020

Healthcare Insurance Claim Assist (B2B / B2C)

Société Générale — Software Engineer

Jul 2019 – Mar 2020

MyMetrics — Finance Risk Management Division (60K-line PnL & risk-certification platform)

  • Single-handedly raised a 60K-line PnL & risk-certification platform from a SonarQube D to A+ over 10 months — disciplined reviews, targeted refactoring and UX fixes on a codebase a global bank's risk analysts depended on.
  • Built 5 new APIs powering the risk and PnL dashboards and complex ag-Grid tables consumed across SG's finance business lines.

Tech: Angular, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, Java, Postgres, SonarQube
