What I Do
Four core disciplines honed across
5+ years of production work
Performance Engineering
Obsessive about speed. Lighthouse 70→92, −45% TTI, perf budgets that keep teams accountable. Every millisecond is UX.
Full Stack Architecture
End-to-end ownership — from database schema to pixel-perfect UI. Systems designed to scale without becoming a maintenance burden.
React Native & Mobile
Cross-platform apps that feel native, not bolted-on. Built complex social simulations with 10K+ on-device records/session.
Complex UI Systems
80+ interdependent search filters, real-time D3.js dashboards, keyboard-driven ERP flows — if it's hard to build, I've shipped it.
Perf budget first
Nothing ships without a benchmark. Speed isn't a feature — it's the baseline.
TypeScript strict
Compiler errors caught at build time cost nothing. Runtime errors in production cost everything.
Ship · measure · iterate
Intuition gets you to v1. Data gets you to v10. I care about both.
“I don't ship features — I ship experiences. Every decision has a reason, every line of code has a benchmark.”

Experience
Alazia Labs
Senior Frontend Engineer
- Architected Finemake ERP from scratch — JIT/MTO manufacturing frontend with real-time D3.js dashboards; cut defect-detection time by 40% and lead time by 18%
- Built Twilly (React Native) — a full social-media simulation for academic research, handling 10K+ behavioural events per session with an on-device event replay engine
- Delivered 10times.com (Next.js) — 80+ interdependent search filters, Lighthouse 70 → 92, TTI −45%, PageSpeed 90+, serving millions of event-goers globally
- Championed performance culture: code-split bundles, virtualised lists, skeleton loading, and lazy hydration — no feature shipped without a perf budget
Scabula Labs
Co-Founder & Full Stack Engineer
- Co-founded Scabula Labs and designed the full technical architecture for state-wide AgriTech infrastructure — serving 100K+ citizens across 5+ districts
- Shipped 3 core platforms: searchable crop database, unified government-scheme application portal, and real-time admin console for district officials
- Built a policy-mapping engine that dynamically evaluated scheme eligibility across districts, replacing a manual paper process used by state officials
DIT University
B.Tech — Computer Science & Engineering
- B.Tech CSE — coursework in Data Structures & Algorithms, Operating Systems, System Design, Database Engineering, and Computer Networks
- Capstone project: distributed file-sharing application with conflict-free merge resolution — awarded Best Final Year Project in department
- Built the CS foundation that informs how I reason about state machines, API contracts, and system performance constraints today

Social Proof
What colleagues
say
Varun's performance obsession is genuinely rare. On Finemake he turned a sluggish ERP prototype into something that felt instant — and he documented every micro-optimisation so the whole team could level up alongside him.
Varun never treated our scheme portal as 'just another CRUD app'. He understood the policy constraints deeply and built something district officials actually enjoyed using — that level of empathy for end-users is hard to find.
Varun took our event platform from a performance liability to something we're proud to benchmark. The Lighthouse jump was impressive, but what stood out was how clean and maintainable the codebase stayed throughout the entire overhaul.
Working alongside Varun on Finemake reshaped how I think about frontend architecture. He has a gift for making complex state flows feel obvious in hindsight — and his TypeScript discipline means you can trust the codebase even when he's not in the room.
Varun shipped our complete mobile research app ahead of schedule and it held up flawlessly under real experimental conditions — something very few engineers could've pulled off. His instinct for building things that just work is exceptional.
