What I'm doing now
A Now page — a single source of truth for what I'm actively working on this month, beyond the project portfolio. Recruiters and friends asking "what are you up to" get a current answer instead of a months-old LinkedIn post.
At work — ContextQA
- Test execution engine: backend work on the QA-automation orchestrator — Playwright / WebdriverIO / LambdaTest job scheduling, retry semantics, artifact collection.
- VNC streaming: piping live test sessions from headless browsers to the dashboard for visual debugging.
On the side
- SEO / GEO / AEO sweep across every public project — favicons, OG images, JSON-LD, FAQ schema, llms.txt for AI crawlers. The infrastructure work behind landing in the right results when recruiters search.
- razorpay-patterns-demo: India-accessible sibling of stripe-payments-demo. Phase 1 (HMAC + idempotency) live; Phase 2 (BillingAccount + subscriptions) merged into KhataGO.
- Open to part-time / freelance: particularly distributed systems, payment infrastructure, real-time platforms, AI-pipeline backends. Targeting Stripe, Vercel, Supabase as next employer.
Reading / learning
Distributed systems patterns from Designing Data-Intensive Applications; Stripe / Square engineering blogs on idempotency and webhook design; the Vercel edge runtime docs to better understand the constraints my Vercel-deployed NestJS apps run under.
