● Working remotely with Tether to help build a new paradigm in the AI world (Local AI), where LLMs run locally on your device rather than in the cloud.

● Contributing to the development of QVAC Apps as a Frontend Engineer, using React Native and TypeScript for mobile apps and React for desktop apps. Focused on building seamless/performant user interfaces that deliver the full power of modern AI assistants while ensuring AI and LLM inference runs locally and efficiently on-device (using the power of QVAC SDK).

● Key Achievements in Tether:
1) Developed Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) functionality in QVAC Workbench (mobile app), enabling users to upload & manage documents (text/pdf files) into a local repository and then query them to get contextual answers.
2) Improved chat UX by adding intuitive UI components in QVAC Examples (mobile app).
3) Designed and developed a Benchmark page in QVAC Examples (mobile app) to run LLM inference benchmarks, generate average performance metrics, and store results along with device info so they can be used for future reference or comparison.
4) Implemented the Benchmark page in desktop app as well with same styling.
5) Heavily using Cursor for AI-assisted coding to accelerate development cycles, ship new features much faster, and maintain high-quality code under tight timelines.

● Worked remotely with a U.S. based company named Canoa, developed new features and revamped existing functionality/design in Canoa app, a web-based tool built to empower the interior designers, enabling them to design spaces in an innovative and playful way so they can share their ideas to the world in a better way.

● Contributed in building Canoa as a Sr. Front End Developer - using React, TypeScript, React Query, PixiJS, Yjs, Next.js, Ant Design, Radix UI, React Hooks, etc.

● Key Achievements in Canoa:
1) Resulted in 20% increase in user engagement by fully building the AI sidebar (left) and Catalog sidebar (right) inside a canvas. Later on, I restyled them in dark mode.
2) Revamped existing features, reduced canvas load times by 30%, enhanced overall application performance, resulted in a seamless UX.
3) Restyled the toolbar on top of canvas to look dark (the way it looks today).
4) Implemented the new navigation experience in the app, it enables the users to access and navigate to all available pages in a single shared dropdown on the toolbar (throughout the app).
5) Redesigned all the product cards in the Products page.
6) Implemented product cards in My Catalog page as per new figma designs.
7) Developed the new Canvas dashboard page where users can view and interact with all the canvases they have access to.
8) Revamped and redesigned the side panel (product sidebar) across the app so that the users can quickly view/edit the product details in a panel and can take actions there (while staying on same page throughout the app), same way I built popovers in canvas.
9) Built the Dashboard/Project node fully from scratch, currently available inside the canvas, it displays many interactive widgets like Schedule, Address, Budget, Milestones.

● Worked remotely with Bread, a U.S. based software agency which helps the startups to build and scale their products.

1) Worked with their client Banff on their product named Contender, a Web App targeting to serve high-performing executives who want to excel in their career by connecting them to the industry leaders so they can gain the mentorship they need.

● Contributed in building Contender as a Sr. Front End Developer - using React, Tailwind CSS, Headless UI, JavaScript, TypeScript, React Query, Next.js, React Hooks, etc.

● Key Achievements in Contender:
a) Reduced the development time of new features by 30% as I converted the old Ant Design based UI components into all-new highly reusable components, using Tailwind CSS and Headless UI (replacing the old ones), also ensuring a consistent design system throughout the codebase.
b) Integrated Tanstack React Query and React Hooks for improving state management, which led to 25% reduction in client side API calls, it also boosted data fetching efficiency by 15%.
c) Communicated about new ideas in daily stand-up meetings, participated to incorporate them.
b) Re-created many of the existing forms as per new designs, which are now using my newly built Tailwind based components (as the Ant components were bulkier and inflexible). Some names are: Talent FYI Form, Candidate Form, Pipeline Form, & more...
c) Created a new Registration Page to onboard new candidates.
d) Involved mostly in building new user facing features as per figma designs.

2) Previously, in my first 2-3 months (before Contender), I built Next app, a hybrid Mobile App in React Native for Android/iOS (for Banff).

● Contributed in building Next app using React Native, TypeScript, React Query, Supabase, React Hooks, Expo, XCode, etc.

● Key Achievements in Next app:
a) Implemented new feature for users to keep Notes and Todo items with a seamless UX.
b) Optimized the app to work well on Android.
c) Did major improvements/bug fixes.

● Collaborated remotely with Turing, worked with their Silicon Valley (U.S.) based client (an early stage startup company named Sugar), built a hybrid Mobile App in React Native for both Android & iOS, targeting to make apartment living better than ever for the residents by connecting them and building their community.

● Contributed in building Sugar app as a Sr. Mobile App Developer - using React Native, JavaScript, TypeScript, Apollo GraphQL, React Hooks, Redux, Expo, XCode, ES6, ES7, etc.

● Key Achievements in Sugar app:
1) Built the whole Marketplace feature inside the app from the scratch, it allows the residents to sell, buy or lend items from each other. As a result, it improved the engagement of residents with the app by up to 50%.
2) Helped building managers in getting feedback from the building residents much faster than before, as I implemented the Surveys & Polls feature which is used as a tool by the building managers to proactively get feedback from the residents about their experience and to know about how they can help to improve it.
3) Built the Co-Branding feature in a configurable way, using which the app launches and runs with different logos for different brands/buildings who ask for it, hence making it easier than ever to onboard new clients.
4) Created the Reviews & Ratings widget, for the building managers to ask for reviews from residents about their business (on Google and Yelp).
