I'm a software development engineer at Honeywell in Bengaluru, where I'm the sole backend engineer on M2H, an enterprise migration platform built on .NET and Azure. Before that, I was a software engineering intern at Nielsen, working on a cross-browser metering extension used by over a million panelists.
Outside work, I build small, focused developer tools — ShutdownCheck, TokenLens, and InterviewCoach AI, below — and contribute fixes and tests to open-source projects.
Now (October 2026): hardening ShutdownCheck's release pipeline, day-to-day backend work on M2H at Honeywell, and small open-source contributions most weeks.
Cost observability for GitHub Copilot. It reads the local usage ledger, attributes spend to five cost centres, forecasts budget burn, and shows where credits are being wasted. Ships as a CLI, a local dashboard, and a VS Code extension, and runs entirely on your machine.

Checks whether a service shuts down cleanly. It terminates the service under real load, the way an orchestrator would, and reports which of the seven stages of graceful shutdown failed — with named findings (SC000–SC017) and specific fixes for each. Works against processes, Docker containers, and in CI.
