Past Experience
– Co-founder and CTO at WebLedger.in a FinTech SaaS Product.
– Lead Technical Consultant at TarkaLabs.
– 7.5+ years at PAR-Punchh, a SaaS-based loyalty marketing SaaS product company. If you live in the USA, chances are you’ve used a restaurant app powered by Punchh for loyalty and/or online ordering.
– 2.5+ years in service-based companies, building apps that made a real impact on people’s lives. I was an early iOS app developer, back when only a limited number of apps were available on the App Store
Interesting Projects
– Around 8–9 years ago, I built a child-tracking solution using a coin-sized device that could be placed in a child’s clothing. The phone app tracked the child using BLE for nearby distance/direction (up to ~30 meters) and GPS for precise location.
– When traveling with family and friends, we usually take lots of photos, and friends often ask, “Send me the photos you clicked of me.” Searching manually and sending on WhatsApp also reduces quality. So I explored an app idea that automatically clusters photos by face and location. You tag a friend once, and the app creates a virtual album and shares relevant photos with them in one tap. It also works both ways, so I receive my photos from their camera roll too. This could be extended to auto-generate collages or short trip videos for social sharing. I built a similar iOS app around 9–10 years ago.
I'm rebuilding this in either React Native or Flutter with modern tooling. Want to collaborate? Email me with your profile + how you'd like to contribute. I'm also considering making it open-source. If you have thoughts on scope and license(MIT/Apache-2.0), I'd love to hear them.
