Senior Product Engineer for Founders & Teams
I’ll be in Switzerland in March - available for in-person meetings in Zurich, Basel, and Geneva.
I’m Krishna - a senior full-stack engineer with 15+ years of experience building and shipping production systems across web, mobile, and backend infrastructure.
I don’t just build features - I design and ship complete systems. From architecture to deployment, from auth and payments to background jobs and email infrastructure, I can own the entire stack.
I’ve worked with startups, enterprise teams, consulting firms, and nonprofits across healthcare, finance, media, and e-commerce.
I’ve built platforms like Kurrier, an open-source email identity and shared inbox infrastructure layer for teams that need programmatic control over messaging systems.
If you need someone who can:
- Architect clean, scalable systems
- Move fast without creating long-term mess
- Own backend, frontend, infra and deployment
- Think like a product partner, not just a coder
Let’s talk.
Engagement options:
2–3 Week Product Acceleration Sprint
Focused engagement for teams that need momentum quickly. Ideal for shipping a core feature, cleaning up architecture, integrating auth or payments, or stabilizing an existing codebase before scaling.
