I'm a Full Stack Developer and Team Lead with 7+ years of experience building production web and mobile applications. Over the past year, my focus has shifted to AI. Most weeks now, I'm integrating large language models into real products. The AI work. I work with the Anthropic Claude API, OpenAI, and AWS Bedrock. I've built AI chat features for end users, AI image generation pipelines with a small pre-pass model to improve prompt quality, document analysis using Claude Vision, scheduled AI content generation that runs overnight on cron, and translation pipelines for multilingual apps. I use Claude Code daily for development. I also write about what I learn on LinkedIn: Claude Code workflows, prompt engineering, AI cost optimisation, and multi-provider fallback patterns. The full-stack work. ReactJS, Next.js, NodeJS, NestJS, Express, Python/Django, TypeScript across the stack. Strapi CMS for content and API work. Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB. Git on GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket. CI/CD and Docker basics. I've worked on 15+ projects as a dedicated resource, including large-scale eCommerce platforms and job portals. Payment gateway integrations with Razorpay, Stripe, PayPal. Queue-based processing systems using NestJS + BullMQ. Google Maps with autocomplete locations. I lead and mentor teams of Node.js and React.js developers, work well solo, and follow Agile/Scrum with Jira, Trello, and ClickUp.
