Sr. Software Engineer · Mumbai, India ✿

I build cloud systems that scale to millions, fail gracefully, and ship on time. 4+ years of serverless architecture, AWS mastery, and AI/ML integration — with a soft spot for elegant, tested code.

Engineer at heart,
builder by nature.

I thrive where cloud infrastructure meets real human impact. Whether it's shaving query latency with DynamoDB GSI indexes, weaving LLMs into production pipelines, or building auth systems trusted by enterprises — I approach every problem with precision and curiosity.

Currently at Openspace Services where I architect serverless APIs, identity systems, and data pipelines that hold up under pressure — and look clean doing it.

"I don't just write code. I craft systems." ✿

🌿
Systems First
Design for failure before success. Every API, pipeline, and auth flow built to degrade gracefully.
🌸
Test Everything
Maximum coverage with Pytest & Moto3 isn't a checkbox — it's the only way to ship with true confidence.
Curious Always
From RAG pipelines to gesture recognition to IoT safety systems — I follow the interesting problem wherever it leads.

Currently here
Sr. Software Engineer
Openspace Services Pvt Ltd · Mumbai
  • Architected serverless APIs with AWS Lambda & API Gateway; optimized DynamoDB with GSI indexes to significantly reduce query latency at scale.
  • Implemented Singleton Design Pattern with dependency injection, improving code maintainability and performance across services.
  • Built multi-provider authentication — AWS Cognito, OKTA, Azure AD — securing enterprise access for thousands of users.
  • Achieved maximum test coverage with Pytest & Moto3; containerized with Docker and automated deployments via Bitbucket CI/CD.
  • Led LLM integration: RAG pipelines, OpenAI & Gemini APIs, MCP integrations, and production prompt engineering.

Built a game controlled entirely through gesture recognition — no keyboard, no mouse, just your hands and a camera. Before gesture control went mainstream, Smriti was already building it. This is what happens when engineering curiosity meets creative problem-solving.
