Hello.
I'm Chaitanya.

At Atlassian, I work on making engineering teams faster and more effective. I led Project Thunderstone for Jira’s frontend platform, saving over 4,500 CI hours each week, reducing P90 time to the first green build from 18 to 15 hours, and cutting the number of tests run in CI by up to 90% without sacrificing confidence. I also defined and drove the H1 developer productivity strategy for the Work Item Domain, launching projects aimed at reducing coding cycle time by 40%, from 75 to 45 hours.

At Razorpay, I built platforms and tools that helped teams ship consistent, high-quality products. I developed and scaled Blade, the open-source, cross-platform design system, and built an AI-powered Figma plugin and MCP integration that turned designs into React code following Blade’s patterns. I led Frontend Universe, improved the Admin Dashboard’s frontend infrastructure and developer experience, and integrated acquired businesses into the Merchant Dashboard with a focus on stability and performance. I also led the Android and iOS Merchant Mobile App and streamlined operational processes for the Growth organisation.

At Unifize, I built the Android and iOS mobile app for a communication platform that helped manufacturing teams reduce wasted time and strengthen accountability. Alongside developing the app with React Native and Firebase, I helped shape key product design and engineering decisions and mentored junior engineers.

At Street Light Software, I built the EasyHR mobile app for Android and iOS, bringing everyday HR workflows to mobile. I implemented geofencing and live employee tracking and developed PHP-based APIs to support the app.
