I build intelligent systems that scale.

Senior Full Stack Engineer with 5+ years building cloud-native solutions — currently leading frontend for AI-powered security systems that detect and respond to cyber threats automatically, and building agentic AI systems that think and adapt on their own.

About

Intelligent systems, built calm.

The work is not just shipping features. It is designing systems that stay understandable when the stakes are high.

My best work happens at the intersection of AI and cloud systems: interfaces that stay calm under pressure, backend platforms that stay reliable, and agents that make intelligent decisions faster than we can. That's the future I'm building toward.

Recently I have worked on AI-driven threat detection, agentic investigation flows, generated SDKs, infrastructure APIs, identity, RBAC, audit trails, and cloud deployment pipelines — across the full stack, from UI/UX to Kubernetes.

01

Secure by design

Security is not a final checklist. I build identity, permissions, auditability, and safe defaults into the architecture early — proactive defense against malware, phishing, and emerging attacks.

02

AI-native engineering

From LLM-powered threat classification to autonomous agents, I design systems where AI is the engine, not a bolt-on — software that can heal itself and optimize automatically.

03

Product clarity

Complex systems only become useful when flows, states, copy, and information hierarchy make decisions easier. I design data-rich interfaces that simplify complex security insights.

Experience

Five years, four countries, one trajectory.

From mentoring MERN developers in Bengaluru to AI-driven cybersecurity in Abu Dhabi — each role compounding toward intelligent, secure systems.

Masai School

Software Engineer

Built internal learning platforms in React and Node.js while mentoring 200+ students into MERN developers.

  • Mentored 200+ students on React, Node, and DSA through daily stand-ups, pair programming, and weekly evaluations.
  • Developed internal products for learning and job-readiness as a React.js and Node.js product developer.
  • Guided student project builds on the MERN stack, with structured code review and assessment.

Selected work

Work shown as product evidence.

Each case study is framed by the user pressure, the system decision, and the product result it made possible.

5 case studies in this view

01

Security

Go SIEM Agent — LLM Classifier

An AI-native SIEM agent written in Go that classifies any raw log line into a structured threat report — with MITRE ATT&CK mapping, IOC extraction, severity triage, and actionable remediation — in under 20 seconds, using a local-first LLM stack.

ThreatRAG — Agentic Threat Intelligence RAG

A spec-first, security-hardened RAG platform that answers analyst questions with cited sources from MITRE ATT&CK, OWASP, and NVD — then runs autonomous multi-agent investigations on any IOC end-to-end.

File Ingestion Platform — Archive Parsing & IOC Extraction

A local-first ingestion platform that takes a 10 GB password-protected archive, recursively unpacks it, detects and parses every member format, extracts ten classes of indicator from each record, and streams the results into PostgreSQL and OpenSearch — with live progress in a React dashboard.
