About Me

Hi, I'm Shanaaya (legal name Vidit Singh Gautam) — a Senior Full-Stack Software Development Engineer who loves turning ambiguous problems into polished, reliable products.

Over the last few years I've built integrated e-signature flows, real-time scheduling systems across web and mobile, automated invoicing pipelines, and dynamic calculation engines. I care deeply about clean architecture, performance, and experiences that feel effortless.

Mechanical Engineer by degree, software engineer by passion — I bring a systems mindset to everything I build.
