About Me
Boston, MA Microsoft: 8 yrs Cornell: CS & Math
Hi, I'm Nikhil. I'm a full-stack developer with a Cornell CS degree and 8 years of product leadership at Microsoft.
As a Senior PM there, I managed the Office.com home page experience (100M MAU) and grew the experimentation culture across Microsoft Office. It was great work, but I missed writing code.
So I started building things: games, data visualizations, tools I needed but couldn't find. What started as personal projects grew into live apps with real users. I'm excited to bring these skills to a new team.
Hire Me
I'm actively looking for full-stack web developer roles.
I have strong from building the production web apps above, along with customer instincts and operational know-how from 8 years shipping enterprise software at Microsoft.
If you think I'd be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you.
Also open to freelance and contract work.
