about me

Hey, I'm Yash, a software developer based in Bengaluru, India.

I love solving real-world problems, or at least trying to. I’ve always been curious about why things work the way they do and loved going down the rabbit hole. I think that is what eventually pulled me toward computer science.

One of the first programs I built was a simple marks calculator for my mom, who used to manually calculate and maintain her students’ marks on paper. I wrote a small Python program in a Jupyter Notebook to keep track of the marks and calculate the totals, and it made me realize for the first time how programming could be a tool to solve real problems.

Since then, I’ve been learning and working continuously, trying to understand what happens beneath the abstractions—from building web applications to learning more about systems and the fundamentals of computer science.

experience

  • Joined Snowmountain AI as the fifth engineer and worked across multiple products, starting with Forecast 360 and later helping build QwikBuild from its early stages. As a product engineer, I work across frontend, backend, infrastructure, developer tooling, and the AI agent stack depending on what the product needs.
  • Forecast 360: Worked on the banking risk-modeling and forecasting platform, building features across Next.js, TypeScript, tRPC, PostgreSQL, and AWS Amplify. Worked on analytics workflows, database and API performance, search, authentication, UX, and end-to-end testing.
  • QwikBuild: Joined the product in its early stages as a founding engineer and contribute to the production platform around our agentic app-building system. Work across the agent platform, generated application runtime, APIs, authentication, collaboration, file storage, SEO, admin tools, notifications, and deployment workflows.
  • Developer tooling and infrastructure: Build and maintain the SDK, deployment tools, and local development workflows used to build, debug, and deploy generated applications. This includes TypeScript and Python tooling, cloud sandboxes, deployment pipelines, workspace syncing, and application build systems.
  • Across QwikBuild, I work across TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL, AWS, React, Next.js, Hono, Deno, and AI-agent workflows, taking up problems wherever they sit in the product rather than working within a single part of the stack.

  • Built a remote multiplayer math games platform using Phaser, React, Express, WebSockets, and Redis for desktop and mobile browsers.
  • Developed real-time multiplayer features with WebSockets and the ws package, including room creation, joining, and moves broadcasting.
  • Migrated game state to Redis, enabling a stateless architecture to handle large-scale traffic and real-time updates with Redis Pub/Sub.
  • Created a bot for playing against the computer, enhancing gameplay with adaptive strategies.
