Background

Currently working in Corporate Bank Technology Division at Deutsche Bank on enabling instant payments and developing awesome applications around the same domain. At Nomura I worked with the Middleware Services & Cloud Technologies where I explored messaging technologies like IBM MQ, Tibco, etc., and developed understanding of how they work on low level, my work revolved around the development of interactive dashboards around them.

Coming to my academics, I was a student at Birla Institute of Technology and Sardar Patel Institute of Technology from where I earned my Bachelors and Masters Degree. I have been a founding member and chairperson of the College Coding Club and have served as technical lead in students committee which tested my leadership, management and communication skills.

I have been a part of hackathons like JPMC's Code for Good, Nomura's KakushIN, Nagarro's Code-n-counter, Smart India Hackathon, etc. that have given me great experience and a sense of teamwork. Also participating in competitive coding competitions like ACM ICPC, ACM semi code, etc. has helped me to continue to evaluate and stay up-to-date with logical cum analytical thinking and hands-on with coding skills.

As a curious being I have been building various applications with some awesome people, I enjoy bridging the gap between engineering and design — combining my technical knowledge with my keen eye for design to create beautiful products. My goal is to always build applications that are scalable and efficient under the hood while providing engaging, pixel-perfect user experiences.

Although I'm mostly in front of my laptop. While I'm not working, I’m probably watching a television series or a movie, listening to music, watching random stuff on youtube.
