Stay hungry, stay curious.

In my years in college, I've had the privilege of working with some amazing people and organizations, both startups and open source.
These experiences have given me valuable insights into the software industry. Here are some highlights.

  1. Builder.io

  2. Embedchain

    Open source contributor

    At Embedchain, I worked with the core team in improving developer experience as well as customer experience. I added several data loaders like Image, Directory, Discord, Substack etc. that expanded our package to be consumed for a lot of unstructured content. Built the entire deployment pipeline (ec commands) allowing RAG apps to get deployed at scale using any platform (modal.com, render.com, streamlit, gradio etc). I also drove the embedchain integrations with chainlit and streamlit. I also added function calling support for OpenAI LLM and YAML schema validation. I built and published their official docker images which has got over 100+ pulls. Apart from these, I added support for some LLMs and improved their tests from 48% coverage to 77%.

I also led frontend refactoring, transitioning to TypeScript and React Native components within Next.js for improved code reusability. I also created StudySage.AI, a React Native app with routing, real-time chatting, and file/audio uploads. I implemented audio-to-text transcription from various sources using LangChain and Node.js, generating summaries, key points, flashcards, etc.

  7. Dragonfruit AI

    Software Engineer Intern

    At Dragonfruit, I built a folder-like structure to the current 'Views' structure extending its functionality to manage views nicely. I worked on region graphics using pixi.js and added interpoints and drag functionality to map regions as well as spatial filter regions. I wrote cleanup scripts, fixed 20+ tests and made e2e tests 36.06% faster. I changed Insight settings page interface to a modal for consistency and added a search filter dependency model where it checks if the search filter is referenced somewhere and alerts the user for the same if the user wants to delete it.
    Apart from my technical meetings, I also attended the product all-hands meetings to better understand the product. Additionally, I had the opportunity for regular meetings with one of the co-founders, where I learned a lot about how startups truly function and make decisions, among other things.
