Things I've shipped

A mix of side projects, case studies, and product work — from family finance apps to railway reliability analysis.

// 03 · profile

Two disciplines, one mindset

I keep India's signalling systems — track circuits, point machines, relays, interlocking — running safely and reliably as a Junior Engineer (Signal) with Indian Railways. Inspection, testing, fault diagnosis, and emergency restoration are part of the daily rhythm.

Alongside that, I build digital products and write code. A Post-Graduate certification in Product Management, real-world PM roles, and a string of shipped side projects have given me a practical grounding in roadmaps, user research, and KPI-driven decisions.

The common thread is reliability: in signalling, it keeps trains safe; in software, it keeps systems running. I'm open to side projects, startups, and product collaborations alongside my primary Railways career.
