Hyderabad, India — researching, designing, shipping

Rahul

I build

I build systems other teams build on, things that did not exist yesterday, and research turned into shipped software.

Software Engineer II at Microsoft. I design and build the systems underneath the product — onboarding frameworks, data pipelines and AI integrations that other teams depend on. The part I like most comes before the code: digging into a problem nobody has solved yet and working out what is actually possible. Twenty products of my own, taken from a blank page to a live URL.

Things I've built

  • Rehearsal — open in a new tab

    A mock interview that talks back. Speak your answers, get scored every turn, face the follow-up you were hoping to avoid.

    AI · Careers
  • ResumeFit — open in a new tab

    Will your CV survive the filter? An honest match score, the keywords you are missing, and sharper rewrites of your bullets.

    AI · Careers
  • ClauseClear — open in a new tab

    Paste a contract, lease or offer letter. Get the risky clauses in plain English — what is missing and what to push back on.

    AI · Legal
  • OGCheck — open in a new tab

    Link previews, robots.txt and sitemap validated in one request — with proof the preview image really loads. API, CLI and CI action.

    Developer tool
  • Lifeline — open in a new tab

    Choking, CPR, bleeding, stroke — calm first-aid steps that work with no internet, because emergencies do not wait for signal.

    Everyday · Health
  • Milkbook — open in a new tab

    A daily delivery register: one tap a day, an exact monthly bill for your vendor, and family sync by code.

    Everyday · Home
  • Quire — open in a new tab

    Seventeen PDF tools that never see your file. Merge, split, sign, protect and redact so the words are really gone — turn off your network and it all still works.

    Privacy · Documents
  • Junction — open in a new tab

    Build an AI pipeline as a graph instead of a thousand lines of glue, then export plain Python or TypeScript that needs nothing from me.

Where I've done it

Software Engineer II @ Microsoft

Hyderabad · Platform engineering for Assist 365 and the Microsoft 365 Admin Center

  • Architected deep-linked, contextual guidance across the Microsoft 365 Admin Center — doubled click-through and $84M of projected revenue impact.
  • Led the ChatGPT-powered insights integration — an AI resolution path built into the product, lifting success from 50% to 57%.
  • Migrated Geneva actions from Unify to Assist 365 and built the onboarding framework, so new upstream services plug in instead of being wired by hand.
  • Owned the France and Germany rollouts end to end, data residency and regulatory compliance included.
  • Built the Floodgate survey system from scratch inside Assist 365 for large-scale customer feedback.
  • Designed clickstream pipelines that capture the whole customer journey, so product decisions run on evidence rather than opinion.
