I'm a Frontend Engineer at Plane in Hyderabad, India, with 3+ years of crafting design systems, dashboards and AI-driven UX with React, TypeScript and Next.js. An engineer with a designer's eye: fast, accessible, delightful.
- Design systems: I'm rebuilding Propel, Plane's design system, and earlier helped migrate inFeedo's UI to a shared one
- Accessibility: WCAG target sizes, RTL support, ARIA semantics and contrast are part of the job, not an afterthought
- Performance: I watch Core Web Vitals and use code-splitting, memoization and lazy-loading so apps stay fast
- AI-driven UX: I've shipped AI features for enterprise HR SaaS, turning tens of millions of survey responses into insights
