Over the last five years I've worked with teams shipping enterprise applications — from invoice and customer management platforms at Trafigura to telecom infrastructure tooling at Tata Communications. Most of my day-to-day is Angular, TypeScript, and the quieter craft of writing code that other engineers will read.

I believe in small improvements, compounded. A reusable test framework that cut QA effort by half. An 80% coverage threshold on a large codebase. Code that's a pleasure to revisit six months later. The work isn't glamorous, but the results show up in retrospectives.

Outside Angular, I'm expanding into Node.js, system design, and the architectural layer of frontend engineering — the decisions that matter long after the first sprint.
