Software Developer

A little about me…

I graduated from NSIT with a Bachelors in Information Technology, and have since been working in the software engineering domain. I’m currently a grad student at New York University.
I interned at Amazon Prime Video in NYC during the summer of 2025. I worked on a feature called AI Topics which is aimed at enhancing content discovery on Prime Video. I used Kotlin, TypeScript and the AWS CDK which turned out to be a huge learning curve. It was a challenging and fun summer, and my team was the best everrr.
Previously I’ve worked on Software Globalization at Adobe in India. Frontend development excites me, and my current area of research is Natural Language Processing in Indic languages.
Outside of work hours, I like to read novels, watch movies, look at flowers and clouds.

Technical Skills

I am passionate about building and designing products. Working on software localization, I play the language game for content so that customers get to communicate with products in their own languages.
I’ve worked with TypeScript, React, and Python across numerous software localization projects.
