I spent 8.5 years writing the code.
Now I lead the teams that ship it — and build the AI that makes both faster.
I spent 8.5 years as a developer because I wanted to know how things actually work. I became a PM because someone has to live in the gap between what a client wants and what an engineer builds — and I'd spent enough time on one side of it to understand both. Now I build the AI systems that close it.
From developer to leader — the story behind the stack.
The story behind the stack
I started as a developer because I wanted to know how things actually work. Eight and a half years of backends, APIs, and system architecture will do that — you stop seeing software as code and start seeing it as a series of decisions, trade-offs, and consequences that someone has to own.
That's what drew me to project management. Not the process frameworks — but the realisation that the most important work in a software team happens in the space between what the client said and what the engineer heard. Someone has to live in that gap. I'd spent years on one side of it. I wanted to understand both.
Now at BetaCraft I build the systems that close it — including an AI-native PM workflow (the vibe-* framework + 7 PM skills) that replaced our entire manual pipeline and now runs across three live client engagements.
No PM-shaped proxy between you and engineering. I can challenge an estimate, spot an architecture risk, and still write the client update — without a translator.
The vibe-* dev framework and PM skills ecosystem weren't handed to me. I designed, shipped, and documented them — they're running in production today.
Client delivery at BetaCraft runs brief-to-sprint-to-sign-off under one person. Scope changes, blockers, and budget conversations don't need escalation — they get handled.
I help software teams ship faster and think clearer — by combining a decade of engineering with AI-native project management, so nothing gets lost between the brief and the build.
8.5 years of LAMP / Laravel and third-party API integrations at scale. I read the codebase before I scope the work.
Multi-agent workflows and RAG pipelines built with Claude — systems that don't just assist, they act. Running live at BetaCraft across three client engagements.
Sprint planning, stakeholder communication, cross-functional delivery across time zones and ambiguous requirements.
CRMs, ERPs, and platforms across e-commerce, energy, and manufacturing. Built for scale, not just for launch.

All projects managed at BetaCraft · 2024–Present
A blend of hard technical skills and management strategy, refined over a decade.
Driving projects from inception to delivery with Agile precision and stakeholder alignment.
Translating "Dev-Speak" to "Biz-Speak" seamlessly across teams.
8.5 yrs PHP/Laravel — robust backends, third-party integrations, and Swagger docs that cut developer onboarding time by 25%.
Architecting systems where AI doesn't just chat, but does. Building autonomous agent workflows that replace entire manual pipelines.
I am multi-lingual (English, Hindi, Bengali) and multi-passionate.
When the laptop closes, you can find me exploring new destinations, capturing the world through my camera, hitting the open road, or experimenting in the kitchen.
Growing teams, not just shipping code.
Led end-to-end training for two consecutive PHP intern cohorts at WebCodeGenie — from onboarding through to live project contribution.
Designed structured training modules and skill assessments from scratch, aligned to real job requirements — not generic tutorials.
Formulated communication strategies for client-facing interns — covering technical documentation, requirement gathering, and professional negotiation.
As a Senior Engineer and Project Lead, I didn't just write code — I built the people who write it. From designing training curricula to leading intern cohorts, I've always believed that a team's ceiling is set by how well it learns.
Agentic systems that run the shop — dev side and PM side.
Most PMs use tools. I build them. These are two internal systems I architected and run live at BetaCraft — one that structures how our developers build, and one that automates how I manage projects. Both powered by Claude, both in active production.
Structured, repeatable engineering workflows for the full dev lifecycle.
Automates the full PM admin layer — from client call to Jira ticket.
Both systems are internal to BetaCraft — built, maintained, and evolved by me.
On AI, project management, and the engineer's perspective on building better software.
How I stopped re-explaining my project every session — 9 structured workflows that give Claude full context from day one.
Transcripts, estimates, SOWs, and more — the full client-facing pipeline.
