Souvik Das

I turn complex products into interfaces people actually enjoy using. + years at startups where you ship the whole stack — from drag-and-drop email editors to TypeScript SDKs to AI pentesting tools.

Frontend engineer who ships Bengaluru, India
About

Interfaces by day.
Automations by night.

I've been writing production React and TypeScript since 2021, mostly at early-stage companies where you own the whole thing — not just your Jira ticket.

Outside work, I run local LLMs on my own hardware, maintain a fully offline voice assistant, and built an algo trading terminal for Indian markets — because letting code make (or lose) money is more interesting than watching charts.

I care about interfaces that make complex things feel obvious and code that future-me won't dread maintaining.
