Hi, I'mMahavir Vaishnav

I buildsystems that scale

I architect and scale SaaS, analytics, logistics, and AI platforms — turning five-minute queries into ten-second ones, and prototypes into systems that hold up under real load.

Where I've worked

5+ years shipping production systems across enterprise analytics, logistics, ed-tech, and consulting — increasingly at the architecture and team-leadership end.

Senior Software Developer · Nexsales Solution Pvt Ltd

Feb 2025 – May 2026

Andheri, Mumbai

  • 5 min → 10 s queries
  • 6 engineers led
  • 40% less manual ops
  • Took the platform's worst analytics queries from 5 minutes to under 10 seconds — profiling query plans, designing the right indexes, and refactoring the SQL behind enterprise reporting workloads.
  • Led a team of 6 engineers across feature planning, system design, architecture, and delivery, setting the technical direction with data teams and senior leadership.
  • Architected the backend and distributed data flows behind enterprise analytics workflows, designing for high-volume processing without sacrificing query latency.
  • Embedded as a Forward Deployed Engineer with two US-based enterprise clients — gathering requirements first-hand, driving solution discussions, and shipping business-critical features against real deadlines.
  • Built Python and Pandas automation for large-scale analytics reporting, removing 40% of the team's manual operational work.
  • Ran Agile delivery end to end through Jira and Confluence, making releases predictable and knowledge shared instead of tribal.

Full Stack Developer · Shipyaari

Jul 2023 – Jan 2025

Malad, Mumbai

  • 5,000+ merchants
  • 1,000+ orders/hour
  • 98% success rate
  • 60% faster APIs
  • Architected and scaled Blaze, a logistics platform serving 5,000+ merchants — sustaining 1,000+ orders per hour across 100+ concurrent users at a 98% order-processing success rate.
  • Re-engineered high-volume operations onto RabbitMQ-backed asynchronous, event-driven workflows, decoupling the critical path to lift API performance 60% and keep the system resilient under burst load.
  • Owned the core shipment engine: lifecycle management, rate calculation, courier selection, and tracking workflows spanning multiple logistics partners.
  • Integrated Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, and Zoho so merchant catalogues and orders stayed in sync across systems without manual reconciliation.
  • Integrated PhonePe, Paytm, Razorpay, and JusPay for secure transaction processing and streamlined financial operations.
  • Built real-time operational dashboards and shipment visibility on Socket.io, giving merchants and internal logistics teams a live view instead of a stale one.

Software Development Engineer · Master-O

Jan 2022 – Apr 2023

Remote

  • Integrated enterprise-grade HRMS APIs and automated backend workflows with cron-driven jobs, cutting recurring manual processes out of the loop.
  • Designed and built interactive learning applications in React.js, including real-time educational games and assessment modules.
  • Shipped the Learning Aid Card (LA Cards) platform — swipe-based navigation with rich multimedia content including images and video.
  • Designed a reusable, configurable component system that let non-engineers compose entirely new learning experiences from admin-managed content.

Software Development Engineer · Appectual

Aug 2020 – Dec 2021

Malad, Mumbai

  • Built responsive React.js web applications delivering a consistent experience across desktop and mobile.

Products I've built

Founder-led products where I owned every decision — architecture, infrastructure, interface, and go-to-market.

PdfRaven

PDF SaaS, designed and shipped solo

An end-to-end PDF SaaS — redaction, editing, merging, compression, and format conversion — built on a FastAPI document-processing backend behind REST APIs, with a server-rendered Next.js frontend tuned for speed and SEO. The architecture separates document workflows, auth, payments, and processing pipelines so LLM-powered editing and intelligent automation drop in without a rewrite. Every paying user arrived organically through technical SEO, measured in GA4, with zero paid marketing.

Trenold

AI conversational platform

An AI-powered conversational platform for content generation, question answering, and productivity workflows. Built on OpenAI APIs with real-time prompt-based interactions over a web interface, and a frontend/backend split deliberately kept model-agnostic so additional LLM providers plug in as first-class citizens.
