Mehta

An engineer who ships end to end.

Krish Mehta, standing outdoors with a laptop under his arm
Based in Bangalore, India. B.Tech, Computer Science (IoT specialization), Vellore Institute of Technology, 2026. Freelancing for clients since 2024, with 10+ projects shipped across web, mobile and cloud.

I'm a Software Development Engineer with hands-on experience building production cloud systems across frontend, backend, and infrastructure.

As an Amazon SDE intern I designed and shipped a data pipeline end to end, from a React UI to Python services to AWS infrastructure-as-code, owning it through design, launch, and a major post-launch refactor. Along the way I diagnosed and fixed a data-quality bug that was silently dropping most incoming records, restoring near-complete coverage for downstream teams.

Before Amazon I deployed mobile apps to the App Store and Play Store, built a Redis management TUI, and led app development for the IEEE Computer Society at VIT. I care about reliability, performance, and code that's a pleasure to maintain.

What I do

Cloud and backend systems

Production services and data pipelines on AWS, provisioned as infrastructure-as-code and wired for reliability.

Lambda, Step Functions, DynamoDB, API Gateway, AWS CDK, CI/CD, REST APIs

Full-stack product

End-to-end web and mobile apps with reusable component systems, from first pixel to the app store.

React, Next.js, TypeScript, Flutter, React Native

Developer tooling and performance

Tools that make engineers faster, plus the deep debugging that keeps systems honest and quick.

Terminal UIs, WebSockets, Profiling, Debugging
