About Me
I am a Software Developer with 7+ years of experience, primarily contributing into
building complex and robust backend solutions to support high-volume internet businesses. I have
completed my Bachelors of Engineering with majors in Computer Science from RV College of
Engineering, Bengaluru.
In my current role at Booking.com, I work on Pricing
initiatives for their loyalty program, Genius.
Genius focuses on (a) the partner-side, where we frame products for the partner properties for better
growth, retention and revenue & (b) the customer-side, where we provide monetary & non-monetary benefits
that add the highest value to our travellers.
In my previous role at Swiggy, I worked in the pricing
& checkout teams.
The company started as a Food-tech and later pivoted to a Hyperlocal Platform,
where it was essential to give customers the flexibility to use the delivery fleet the way they wanted
(point-to-point deliveries, shopping lists, alcohol ordering, grocery shopping from pods or third-party
vendors).

could allow Swiggy Product teams to charge customers on the basis of several rule-based
strategies.

Digital KYC
During the COVID-19 to ensure maximum convenience, Swiggy jumped into delivering alcohol at
customer's doorstep.
Alcohol being a age-restricted product, the usage and ordering had to be monitored to make the product
compliant
with the policies listed out by the State Governments. We implemented a complete digital
solution for customer's
age verification by utilising their Government ID Cards and check the compliance as per the State
Laws.
