About

I work on identity, auth, and edge infrastructure at Dream11 — India's largest fantasy sports platform. On a big match day, that's 260M+ users and millions of concurrent sessions relying on systems my team built.

Lately I've been deep in the AI tooling space — building MCP servers so AI agents can onboard tenants and manage access control, and wiring up agentic workflows for internal search. It's the most fun I've had in years.

I care about infrastructure that gets out of the way. The kind you never think about because it just works. I want to build systems that developers actually enjoy using — not ones they fight against.

Before Dream11, I worked on real-time streaming at INDmoney and did explainable AI research at Adobe. Studied CS at UC Irvine.
