Hi, I'm Chinmai

I build ▍

Six years of full-stack engineering across fast-moving startups and enterprise giants. From founding-team zero-to-one builds to platforms handling billions of events, I take ideas from napkin to production.

I'm a Software Development Engineer 2 at Autodesk. Before that, I was on the founding team of an AI recruiting startup, shipped client products at an agency, and scaled analytics at Pluralsight.

That mix means I'm equally comfortable moving fast with no rulebook and navigating the rigor of large codebases, SLAs and cross-team ownership.

I care about boring-in-production systems, fast interfaces, and leaving every codebase better than I found it.

Software Development Engineer 2 (SDE 2)

Full-stack engineering at enterprise scale: building services with NestJS and Next.js, deployed on AWS with Docker, bringing startup-honed ownership and speed to a large, mature engineering org.

  • Authored the engineering design for a new Next.js application and delivered its functionality end to end, from architecture and NestJS backend services to the UI, AWS deployment and release.
  • Improved Next.js application performance by re-architecting the authentication flow and eliminating critical performance bottlenecks, increasing the Lighthouse Performance Score from 50 to 90 while reducing LCP by 50% (3.0s → 1.5s).
  • Migrated the entire frontend unit test suite from Cypress to Vitest, saving around 20 minutes in the CI pipeline.
  • Designed and ran load tests with BlazeMeter to validate performance under peak traffic, identifying bottlenecks and improving application scalability, response times and reliability.
