2007 – 2011

Walking in the gate

Anna University · B.Tech IT

A B.Tech in Information Technology, finished with First Class. I earned my Sun Certified Java Programmer certification in January 2010, while still in college.

22 Aug 2011

Day one: iOS developer

Maksan Solutions

My first day in IT, as a fresher iOS developer. I'd always had a pull toward phones and apps.

2011 – 2014

iOS, then Android, then the web

Maksan Solutions · Developer

I moved to Android, then took over web development when the company urgently needed it. Requirement analysis, database design, splitting work into modules, front end and back end.

May 2014 · Oct 2014

Team Lead, and Best Mentor

Zcodia Technologies

End-to-end delivery, client reviews, project scoping and server management, while still writing code. In October I received the Best Mentor award.

2015 – 2016

Leading 30+ people

Zcodia · Team Manager

A team across web and app development, testing, design, UI/UX and project management. Then Team Manager, owning delivery and client communication.

Oct 2016

Into a very small room

Lystloc · Web Technology Lead

Lystloc was just an idea and a rough POC. Two or three people in a very small room. No scale, no certainty, only belief. I took charge of engineering.

Jan 2017 → 2018

Technology Lead, then launch

Lystloc

The company formally started on 7 Feb 2017. In 2018 we launched Lystloc, and I had a substantial part in getting that first release out.

Jun 2020

Rebuilding the app from the ground up

Lystloc · Lead Technical Manager

I contributed to the architecture, design and UI/UX of a full rewrite of the Lystloc mobile app.

Nov 2021

Director of Engineering & Operations

Lystloc

Engineering and operations, end to end: architecture, cloud, mobile, web, reliability, security and the people. I still work in the code.

2022 · 2023

A weekend build, and 10k+ daily users

Lystloc · Lystface

In 2022 we built Lystface, a facial-recognition attendance app, over a single weekend. By 2023 Lystloc had 10k+ daily active users, with the mobile apps doing much of the work.

What I've built along the way

Six products, one family

LystlocField operations platform
LystCRMCRM for field sales
LystfaceFace attendance
LystproofConsent-driven verification
Lyra AIAgent inside Lystloc
AI DashboardsDescribe it, get it

I use most of them myself. My manager sees my route in Lystloc, I check in with Lystface, and my employment history is verified in Lystproof.

2025 – 2026

The sky changes colour: AI

Lystloc · Lystproof
  • Designing and shipping Lyra AI, the agent inside Lystloc
  • Building AI-generated dashboards: describe it, get it
  • AI-assisted coding for every developer, with an engineering review for every AI automation
  • Director for Lystproof too, and co-host of AI enablement webinars
Off the clock

After hours, I build hardware

GPS tracker
SIM808 GPS→ESP32→OLED→GPRS uplink
Alexa doorbell
RF receiver→ESP32→Sinric Pro→Alexa
IoT IP camera
ESP32-CAM→home Wi-Fi→live stream
22 Aug 2026 · Oct 2026

15 years in. 10 at Lystloc. Still walking.

"Most people never get to see the ending of what they started. I did. And I'm still writing it."
