Software engineer who ships products
Bangalore, India

I'm Shubhainder. I build software the way it's meant to be built: end to end, in production, owned all the way through. I've taken products from an empty repo to real users: full stack apps, applied AI features, a couple of shipped Chrome extensions, and a Top 5 finish at the Google AI Exchange Hackathon. Right now I'm building Bluey Email, an email platform people actually trust to land in the inbox. I care about the details most people skip: the 200ms, the edge case that only shows up at 2am, the data model you'll thank yourself for a year from now. Off the keyboard I'm on the squash court training the same instinct: read fast, move first, don't flinch. If you're building something that actually matters, we'll get along.
I do not have a favourite language. I have a favourite way of thinking about problems. Tools are a means; the job is shipping something that still holds up six months after the demo. Here is where I go deep, and what I reach for when I get there.
Where I live day to day
I obsess over the first 200ms, the ones that decide whether someone stays. Interfaces that feel fast, fail gracefully, and never make the user think.
APIs that scream in development and stay quiet in production. I would rather get the data model right once than patch around it for a year.
LLM features that survive real users, not just the happy path demo. A Top 5 finish at the Google AI Exchange Hackathon came out of this corner.
Shipping is a feature. Lambda, EC2 and Route 53 out front, a clean deploy pipeline behind, and two Chrome extensions live in the store.
The stack will change every couple of years. What will not: reading the codebase before rewriting it, knowing what to leave out, and owning what I ship after it goes live.
