Nexstem
Connecting brain with computers Dope ass Mind controlled X-men Tech, Cooool, ik :P
I have joined Nexstem as Head of Strategy and we are currently developing nexgen Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI). NexStem pioneers neuroscience via innovative brain-computer interfaces, offering real-time bio-signal insights, onboard computing power, and a developer-friendly interface to create an ecosystem for BCI use case development.
It's really interesting to see how we have been customizing product and services to individual levels and up until now all of the inputs has been draw out of insights and observations. But what if I tell you, your brain can tell you exactly what you need and what can make you feel better. It's about time we listen to our human body to take inputs instead of drawing insights from external inputs. I'm pretty sure BCI tech is going to be everyday phenomena in near future and mind controlled tech is no more sci-fi. Watch out for Nexstem :P

Masters' Union
Post Graduate Program in Technology & Business Management pffft.... aka MBA (Actually, I'm done with it.)
Currently, I am pursuing my post grad in the long ass degree mentioned above from one of very cool b-school of India, Masters' Union. It's a startup school located at heart of India. I am a developer trying to do bit of product management, Marketing & Strategy here and you know what ? I'm not bad at all :P
I have done crazy things here in very short span of time. Like creating business in 4 weeks, 2 weeks and Sometimes 2 days (It's not rocket science). I also developed a Web3 community for non-techies called Third Block Community here, we do crazy things everything around Web3 and Blockchain. Drop a hi if you would want to know more (Always up for chat). I am also Part of External Projects at Masters Union Innovation Lab (A University Incubator), We help student founders to take their business from idea to Pre-seed phase and help then innovate cool things.
2021 - 2022
TradeSun
I joined a US based startup as first engineer hire from India, worked as fullstack engineer on a trade finance AI application, implemented interbank API contracts for big banks. Since I already had a good exposure to JP Morgan's technology, I helped TradeSun to implement an communications contract to integrate Astra (TradeSun's patent AI platform) with JPMC's operations platform. Meanwhile I also implemented a task management system to streamline team collaboration and my team loved it! Since we worked remotely, we didn't get many opportunities to hangout together. Here's a picture when we did :)
Coding4All.in
In 2021 March, I got connected to Vivek Choksi (A very kind soul) who was then working on a very noble cause to make technology education accessible to all. We believe a parent's qualification or financial status should not determine a child's access to quality computer education. We went from 30 kids cohort to 200 kids cohort in span of 3 months with 50 Coding4All Fellows spread across globe. We are not a non-profit, we are just bunch of engineers teaching tech to other small engineers, and we love it :)
2018 - 2021
JP Morgan & Chase
Developed Pricing, Interest Calculation, Reference Data and Approval Service which handled 15M transactions daily. Implemented a self recovering, fault-tolerant pricing app, cutting down pay out rate creation time to 8 mins from 7 days

Expert Engineer
Delivered 2 CSR projects, an app for the food waste management for Annadhan Foundation and a lead management software for Yuvaparivartan, KSWA
Rotibank Foundation
This one is very close to my heart because I was a founding team member of Rotibank Foundation. Mr. D Sivanandan, Ex-DGP of Maharashtra is the founder of this social initiative and when he shared his vision for this noble cause to eradicate hunger crisis in India, I couldn't resist. When we started in 2017, we designed a strategy for operations and logistics to reach 3M meals distribution mark in 3 years of inception. We did this through designing community-driven initiative which helped us to support sub-entities in Nagpur, Aara, Hyderabad serving 5K meals per day each. I was also spearheading technical projects for Rotibank, We created POC for a operations application, a food testing hardware, everything with the help of university collaborations. I am still working passively for Rotibank :)
2014 - 2018
Bachelor of Computer Engineering
Did Computer Engineering and became software engineer at bank like real majority of Indians. Apart from techie stuff, started taking interest in event management and became Curator of TEDxCRCE (Kinda sorta very proud stuff). I did my internship with Teach For India, and developed a very cool app for them to do formative assessments realtime. Also did couple (many) Coursera Certifications, no biggie (hehe).
TEDxCRCE
TEDxCRCE is a community very close to my heart as I have been part of this team from zero to one. We started TEDx as one of the very first university chapter in Mumbai. We organized 3 recorded edition of TEDxCRCE, many salon events and we built a social community of engineers who helped many NGOs like Ratnanidhi Foundation, Fr. Agnel Ashram, Mumbai Police and many. This chapter of my life has been instrumental in my growth for many reasons and I'll always wear this as badge of honour.
