Full-Stack Engineer & Freelance Developer
I build fast, scalable web applications that solve real business problems — from payment gateways to CRM systems and design systems used by global teams.
Engineer who cares about
the details that matter.
I'm a full-stack engineer based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, with 3.5+ years building production-grade web applications for startups and enterprises. My day-to-day revolves around Laravel, Vue.js, Nuxt, and PostgreSQL — building systems that are not just functional, but maintainable and scalable.
At Tridhya Tech LTD, I've been the lead developer on multiple international client projects — from CRM platforms and real-estate sales systems to a full internal design system (Oktra) that brought consistency across a suite of products.
I believe great software is 80% good architecture and 20% clean code. I'm opinionated about API design, database structure, and developer experience — because the code you write today is the code someone maintains tomorrow.
Outside work, I publish open-source Laravel packages on Packagist and enjoy learning how complex systems are built from the ground up.

My professional journey and what I built along the way.
- Led development of the Oktra Design System — a Vue 3 component library with BEM architecture deployed across 4 internal products, reducing frontend development time by 35%.
- Architected a full-stack CRM platform for a UK-based client with real-time notifications (Pusher), role-based access control, and automated lead pipeline — scaled to 500+ concurrent users.
- Designed and optimised PostgreSQL schemas for multi-tenant SaaS apps — profiled and eliminated N+1 queries, reducing average API response time by 40%.
- Collaborated with international clients across UK and US time zones, delivering async updates, technical spec documents, and demo walkthroughs.
- Published and maintained 2 open-source Laravel packages on Packagist, used in internal and client projects.
- Integrated Phopepay payment gateway into an existing Laravel e-commerce platform, enabling seamless UPI transactions and expanding payment options for customers.
- Integrated Twilio SMS API into a Laravel-based appointment scheduling system, allowing automated SMS notifications for booking confirmations and reminders, improving user engagement and reducing no-shows.
- Integrated Stripe payment gateway into a Laravel subscription management system, enabling secure credit card processing, recurring billing, and improved revenue tracking for the client's SaaS product.
