    Hi, I'm Payal 👋

    AI & Full-Stack Engineer — I build the hard parts of products.

    what I build

    By day I'm a software engineer at Codifinary (CodeXray), working on a production observability platform. The rest of the time I ship AI and product work for startups across the 🇬🇧 UK, 🇺🇸 US, and 🇦🇺 Australia.

    I like problems with real stakes — where correctness, latency, and money are on the line.

    🔭 Currently

    • 📊 Telemetry & dashboards at CodeXray — Go · ClickHouse · React
    • 🤖 An AI bot that reviews PRs and writes tests — Claude Code + MCP
    • 🔎 Retrieval over real-world data — Qdrant · LiteLLM · Langfuse
    • 💳 Payment & marketplace flows — escrow, automated payouts, disputes

    🛠️ Tech I build with

    GoTypeScriptPythonJavaScriptJava

    OpenAILangChainQdrantMCP

    ReactNext.jsNode.jsSpring BootStripe

                Hi, I'm Payal 👋
                AI & Full-Stack Engineer — I build the hard parts of products.
                what I build
                By day I'm a software engineer at Codifinary (CodeXray), working on a production observability platform. The rest of the time I ship AI and product work for startups across the 🇬🇧 UK, 🇺🇸 US, and 🇦🇺 Australia.
                I like problems with real stakes — where correctness, latency, and money are on the line.
