### Software Developer Engineer Intern, Muze AI CMO (2024-06 – 2025-10)
Remote (United States) · Built Muze CMO from scratch, a full-stack AI marketing platform that reads live Meta and Google Ads campaign and competitor data, predicts whether a creative will perform before spend, and generates the next ad. Designed the data and API layer on Supabase/PostgreSQL with Redis for real-time retrieval and caching, plus a RAG layer grounded in campaign, competitor, and brand data. Cut API latency by 40%, drove a 25% increase in user engagement, and overhauled CI/CD and Docker deploys on AWS (EC2, CloudFront, S3), taking deploys from days to hours.

### Founder & Software Engineer, Independent Projects (2023-02 – present)
Remote · Built InfiniteUGC end to end, an AI video pipeline that turns scripts into TikTok-native ads for 50+ brands across 32+ languages. Wrote the job orchestration and AWS render pipeline behind the long-running compute. Shipped Craft Trading, a React Native (Expo) paper-trading app for the Indian stock market, live on the App Store, with real-time price sync over Redis pub/sub and WebSockets.
