Nishant Bhandari is a pragmatic software engineer with 7 years of experience building consumer-facing mobile and web applications from idea to production. He has shipped Android and iOS apps, led migrations (including a mobile-to-PWA effort), and improved performance across stacks—reducing image load times, API latency, and CI build durations through practical optimizations. As a co-founder he built a B2B SaaS OCR pipeline and managed CI/CD and AWS deployments, and he’s contributed notable open-source improvements to the widely used AnkiDroid project by migrating code to Kotlin and enhancing import and UI flows. Comfortable across React, React Native, Flutter, Kotlin, Django, and .NET, he combines hands-on implementation with developer tooling and testing processes that measurably cut bugs. Based in Bengaluru with an MSc in Computer Science, he favors shipping user-focused features and cleaning up technical debt that quietly improves everyday user experience.
