Fresh out of college, I landed at Zauba Corp - India's leading data services platform for companies data, built core company reports module and entire Frontend & API stack for 1.2M+ companies and 1B+ shipment records. That's where I learned to think at scale.

The hunger to build my own thing led to Tracknix - a tech consultancy that grew to deliver 100+ projects for clients across the globe. Shipping fast and owning outcomes became second nature.

The itch to build products led to CleverDrip, a performance marketing SaaS now tracking 1M+ conversions for 50+ businesses. And Sendjot, an email engine pushing 1.5M+ emails per hour. Both built from scratch.

In parallel, I joined Gustasi as frontend engineer - scaling a food-tech platform from a handful of kitchens to 8,000+ partners across India while handling whole front end techstack

Across all of these, I've owned the entire tech stack end-to-end - websites, APIs, dashboards, mobile apps, all running simultaneously for multiple clients. Not just writing code, but architecting systems that teams can build on.

The common thread? I take ideas from zero to scale.

Eight years across MarTech, food-tech, and enterprise data. I write code, make product calls, close deals, and do whatever it takes to ship products people depend on daily.

Currently diving deep into AI

Building AI-powered products, exploring LLMs, and intelligent automation. The next generation of tech is here, and I'm building at the edge of it.

What people say.

From colleagues and collaborators I've had the privilege of working with.

Chandu built our entire tracking infrastructure from scratch. The platform handles millions of conversions now and it just works. He thinks like a founder, not just an engineer.

Co-Founder

CleverDrip

Business partner, 4+ years

He handled our entire frontend stack from first line of code to expanding it to 8,000+ partners. He single handedly built our Web, Vendor and Admin Dashboards, Android, IOS, Desktop POS and Printing Services. What impressed me most was he is more than an engineer, his entrepreneurial mindset and ability to think like a founder is what sets him apart. He is a true professional.

Founder

Gustasi

Cross-functional partner

When you give Chandu a problem, he doesn't just code a solution. He asks the right questions about why it matters. That's what separates good engineers from great ones.
