Three systems that moved the number that mattered.

Case Study 01 · US SaaS · 2024

Cutting a US sports platform's checkout time by 83%

Playbook365 was bleeding transactions to a 30-second, error-prone checkout spanning six purchase types. Leading a 10-engineer team, I re-engineered the flow end to end and landed it at 5 seconds with zero critical errors.

Case Study 02 · High-traffic · 2022

Scaling a Wikipedia-style reader to 10M+ monthly visitors

A distraction-free encyclopedia serving readers worldwide needed sub-100ms responses under heavy, spiky traffic. Pairing Redis caching with Next.js SSR kept API latency under 100ms while scaling past 10 million monthly visitors.

Case Study 03 · Multi-tenant SaaS · 2021

Building a multi-tenant LMS for 5,000+ students

Tutors needed independently branded academies without engineering involvement. I architected an isolated multi-tenant system with subscription billing, seven payment gateways, and live Zoom classes serving thousands of students.

Tenant isolation is a schema decision, not a middleware one

Why I enforce multi-tenant isolation at the query layer instead of trusting request-scoped guards — and what breaks when you don't.

Community & speaking

Sharing what I learn.

Laravel Rajkot Meetup · October 2023

Laravel Scout with Typesense

How Typesense-backed search differs from plain database queries — full-text relevance, typo tolerance, and speed — wired into Laravel through Scout.

How I work

Ship measurable outcomes

Not features for their own sake. I optimize for the business metric — conversion, latency, retention — and prove the delta.

Own the full stack

From schema design and API contracts to CI/CD and production deployment. No hand-offs, no gaps between layers.

Integrate AI where it earns its keep

Production LLM work with OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini — shipped features that hold up under real traffic, not demos.

Currently

Building: Multi-tenant Restaurant Management SaaS
Learning: Production LLM patterns — evals, tool use, RAG
Speaking: Laravel & GDG meetups, Rajkot
