About Me

Full-stack, platform, and AI-minded engineer building systems that scale from product UX to infrastructure

👋Hello, I'm Sai

I'm a full-stack software engineer with a BSE in Electrical and Computer Engineering and Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. My work spans product-facing web applications, backend services, cloud infrastructure, and data-heavy systems, with a particular interest in healthcare, developer experience, and AI-enabled workflows.

I like problems that sit at the intersection of architecture and execution: designing APIs, shaping platform capabilities, modernizing delivery workflows, and turning ambiguous ideas into shipped software. Across open-source and personal projects, you'll see a mix of distributed systems, local-first apps, developer tooling, GraphQL services, and practical LLM product experiments.

The throughline is leverage. I care about building products that users value and the engineering systems that let teams move faster: clean abstractions, reliable pipelines, observable production systems, and tooling that reduces operational drag.
