Pune, Maharashtra

SDE Intern · Gtribe Experiences

Architected Gtribe 2.0 end-to-end from PRD to launch, unifying trek bookings, a gear shop, corporate CRM and GST invoicing for 2 companies under one login
Launched it on gtribe.in in Oct 2026, replacing two separate websites (trek booking and a Dukaan gear shop) for a business with 8,500+ trekkers
Engineered race-condition-safe seat booking with 15-minute holds; a load test of 200 users racing for 30 seats produced exactly 30 bookings, and the API sustained ~730 req/s with zero errors
Built 3-way Razorpay reconciliation (callback, webhook, server verification) with idempotent confirmation, so paid bookings are never lost or double-confirmed
Designed a 33-table PostgreSQL schema in Drizzle ORM, evolved through 60 additive migrations, covering bookings, RBAC, quotations and GST-compliant invoicing
Implemented server-enforced RBAC with per-area permissions, hiding financial data from unauthorized staff at the API level
Automated WhatsApp OTP login and 21 Meta-approved notification templates through a BullMQ queue (10 msg/s with retries, deduplicated so no message is sent twice)
Set up CI/CD with GitHub Actions: tests gate every deploy, migrations run automatically, and a failed health check rolls the API back on its own

About me

I finished my B.E. in Computer Engineering in 2025. At Gtribe, I built their new platform: trek bookings, the gear shop, payments and GST invoices, all in one place. It went live in October 2026. Before that, I interned at FYND, where I fixed customer issues and worked on their docs and APIs.

I enjoy backend work the most: databases, payments, and making sure things don't break when lots of people use them at once. Outside work, I run marathons, go to the gym, and sometimes write or make videos about what I'm building.

Latest: SDE Intern at Gtribe Experiences, Pune
Built Gtribe 2.0 end to end; live on gtribe.in since Oct 2026.
Before that: SDE Intern at FYND, Mumbai
Shipped docs infra, API pipelines, and client-facing fixes.
Also: Writes on Hashnode, posts on YouTube
Occasional dev blog posts and videos on what I'm building.
