3 Full-Stack Platforms Shipped
  • Built and shipped 3 full-stack policy-intelligence platforms end-to-end for an internal think tank (NFPRC Foundation): a parliamentary/legal/gazette monitoring dashboard (Catallaxy/IPW), an NLP-driven policy-tracking platform (India Governance Watch), and an event/stakeholder-communications system for government outreach (NFPRC Convene).

  • Re-architected an independently-built sub-application into a single deployable unit, cutting the dev/ops footprint from four processes to two.
  • Diagnosed a search-performance bottleneck on a 2.7M-record MongoDB collection and fixed it by moving filters into a MongoDB Atlas Search index, making member-filtered queries up to 276x faster.
