- 5+ years shipping software across enterprise security, fintech, and platform infrastructure.
- Primary languages: Go, Python, Rust, Kotlin, Swift, JavaScript.
- Throughline: end-to-end ownership of services — from the data model to the deploy pipeline to the 2am alert.

## Experience

- **Software Engineer — SquareX** (Dec 2023 – Jul 2025, Singapore; acquired by Zscaler). Owned multiple core backend services (Go & Python) for a multi-tenant, browser-native enterprise security platform on GCP, AWS, and Azure. Built and led: a multi-cloud node-orchestration control plane that provisions/autoscales/upgrades compute across three clouds in 10+ regions; an identity-sync engine ingesting users, groups & devices from five identity providers (Entra, Okta, Google, JumpCloud, Ping) over gRPC; a multi-tenant OpenID Connect / OAuth2 identity provider; and a six-service domain-intelligence suite (credential management, domain categorization, WHOIS, breach detection) on GKE. Plus the policy & access-control layer, the per-tenant deployment toolkit, and the reliability layer (CI/CD, observability, SLO alerting, secret management).
- **Associate Product Manager — FinBox** (Jan 2022 – Sep 2023, Bengaluru). Core maintainer of the FinBox embedded-lending platform (Go backend); managed and migrated infrastructure to a secure, compliant cloud with Terraform.
- **Product Management Intern — FinBox** (Aug 2021 – Dec 2021, Bengaluru). Built Grafana/Redash dashboards for metrics and funnel conversion; developed Airflow DAGs and Python automation.
- **Software Development Intern — Afour Technologies** (Jan 2021 – Jun 2021, Pune). Backend of an internal product in .NET Core; backend of a recruitment ATS with FastAPI (Python).
- **Software Development Intern — Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services** (Aug 2020 – Dec 2020, Hyderabad). Developed an iOS application in Swift.

## Projects

### Live products
- **dopakart** (Go, Next.js; live): A storefront that turns impulse buying into saving. Browse and "buy" like any e-commerce PWA — but checkout deposits the money into your own investment account instead of shipping goods. You pay yourself. Live: https://dopakart.com
- **agentaud.io** (Swift, Rust; live): A voice-driven agent for the Mac. Speak to it and it acts on your machine — transcribes your voice locally with an LLM, routes the request to a frontier model that can run real commands, and talks back with system speech, with a leash that holds risky actions for confirmation. Live: https://agentaud.io

### AI & agent infrastructure
- **second-brain** (Go, React; private): A structured personal-knowledge service any AI agent can query over MCP (Model Context Protocol) — preferences, policies, vendor ratings, order history — so an agent calls `get_briefing()` for fast, token-frugal context before it acts. Go, Postgres + pgvector, MCP over HTTP/SSE, React dashboard; sensitivity classification, provenance tracking, idempotent markdown import.
- **sales-saathi** (Python, ML; private): Live Hindi sales-call coaching. Push-to-talk role-play transcribed via local whisper-cpp (Metal-accelerated), real-time nudges, then a 7-dimension score with evidence-verified quotes. Runs entirely locally — no API keys, no cloud.
- **lomasa-cli** (Go; shipped): A local AI-agent manager — like nvm, but for open-source AI agents (Ollama, OpenCode). Everything runs locally. Source: https://github.com/lomasa-ai/lomasa-cli

### Apps, tools & ML
- **photo-gallery** (Python, ML, Cloudflare): Turns event photos into a site where guests click a face to see every photo that person appears in. RetinaFace + ArcFace, agglomerative clustering, collaborative naming; deployed on Cloudflare Pages + R2 + KV. Used at real weddings and events.
- **farm-pro** (Kotlin, Python): Bilingual (English + Hindi) Android app + FastAPI backend giving farmers in Kanpur Dehat, UP actionable insights — IMD weather, severe-weather nowcasts, advisory bulletins parsed from DAAS PDFs. Offline-first with WorkManager sync.
- **yt-skin** (JavaScript; shipped): A browser extension that adds a "skin" to YouTube — save videos and channels without logging in. Published on Firefox Add-ons and the Chrome Web Store. Source: https://github.com/shivamsbajpai/yt-skin
- **ToLetLife** (Kotlin, Python): A rental marketplace connecting owners and renters directly — Kotlin Android app + FastAPI backend, containerized with Docker. Android: https://github.com/shivamsbajpai/ToLetLife · API: https://github.com/shivamsbajpai/tolet_life_api

## About

A builder who doesn't pick sides — Android in Kotlin, iOS in Swift, browser extensions in JS, CLIs and backends in Go, services and ML pipelines in Python. Day job is backend and platform engineering at scale: multi-cloud orchestration, identity and access, and the reliability work that keeps multi-tenant systems running across regions. Currently deep in the AI/LLM space — not just using the tools but building infrastructure around them. Works with an AI collaborator, "Tvash" (a Claude-powered agent), on the lomasa-ai projects: human ideas and judgment, AI-assisted execution.
