$ cat bio.txt

Chronically online, terminally curious. I have exactly zero hobbies — no movies, no music, no touching grass. Just distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and AI agents doing my bidding. My idea of a good time is watching a queue drain at 3 AM. Everything I ship is built with a production-first mindset: real SaaS, real users, real pager anxiety.

Developed the backend for an EdTech live-session module used by top Indian institutes (IITs/IIMs): faculty onboarding, automatic scheduling, automated invoicing, systematized email pipelines.

LVL 2deploy: saaz-creations/freelance-backend-team-lead2025 – Present· RemoteRUNNING

CodeSentinel

The cyber-defense agent that never sleeps. (Neither do I, but that's beside the point.)

An autonomous, privacy-first security agent built to democratize cybersecurity. It reads intent, context, and patterns instead of just grepping for CVEs — a force multiplier for teams that can't afford a red team.

Static mode: audits local repos, auto-fixes vulnerabilities, and packages the changes into ready-to-merge GitHub PRs.
Dynamic mode: explores live URLs like a security researcher — uncovered 15+ hidden endpoints (including exposed Supabase REST/storage URLs) on an authorized target.
Reached plaintext credentials on a live authorized target in under 10 minutes.

InsureZeal

Insurance paperwork, minus the humans who hate doing it.

A fully automated insurance management SaaS covering the entire policy lifecycle: creation, claims workflows, customer portal, analytics, document processing, and multi-channel comms — all gated behind granular role-based access control.

OCR + Gemini AI policy ingestion cut manual data entry time by 90%.
Automated reconciliation engine chews through 500+ records in under 3 seconds.
Granular RBAC so the intern can't nuke the claims table.
