Work Experience
- Stealth Startup
Software Engineer, March 2023 - Present
Working with a Web3 + AI startup, with a globally operated remote team partly based in SF Bay Area. - Serendipity
Software Engineer, August 2022 - Februrary 2023
Serendipity approaches Note Taking in a whole new way, by focusing on People, not just Notes. It is a note-taking app that helps you remember the people you meet, and the things you learn from them, and creates you a beautiful looking network graph.
Pair coded with my teammate, and shipped the MVP in just 10 days (Next.js + Node.js). It was like a hackathon on steroids. Worked on the entire stack: the frontend, the backend, and all the business logic. Shipped a Mac Desktop App for Serendipity power users.
Worked hardcore, extensively on perfecting the D3.js Advanced Network Graph mechanics. Shipped insanely complex CRDT based collaborative editing using a wide range of technologies. - Monument Labs, Inc.
Product Manager & Web 3.0 Developer, December 2021 - Present
Monument.app is a Blockchain Start-up, which helps create collections of significant moments within a creator's journey. Each moment is represented by a collectible NFT that can be bought and owned by a creator's closest supporters. Creators share their stories through minting new moments, financially enabling them to pursue their dreams.
As a Full-stack Web 3.0 Developer, I helped create all the Monument Smart Contracts currently deployed on the Ethereum Mainnet. Wrote and thoroughly tested the Monument ERC721 NFT Contract (got it audited back and forth by professionals), and the Monument Marketplace Contract that supports buying & selling of NFTs and manages its auctions in a secure fashion.
As a Product Manager, I managed a team of 5 developers working on the Frontend, Backend, Web3 & the Monument iOS App. I brought order in chaotic times, and helped the company ship its MVP in a month using Scrum & Agile methodologies. - Beam Community, Inc.

Side-project, January 2023 - Present
The Generative Press surfs on Twitter and popular news sites, also reads latest tweets by verified citizen journalists to learn about latest happenings live, and then, our very own home-grown AI personalities write the news after gathering all the context. It's automated from beginning to the end. No editorial team, no human intervention, only news.
