More about me
I’m Dhruba
I started in full-stack web, moved into QA automation, and now spend most of my time building AI systems that real businesses depend on. At Social Engagement Group I lead R&D, building LLM automation, web platforms and growth systems for the agency and its clients. Part-time, I'm the Product & Operations Lead at Optify Transformation Partners for its brands: Operavo, a voice AI agent that answers and books calls for real estate teams, and AllureHive, a home-décor e-commerce brand.
Alongside that, I've delivered platforms end to end for clients: a wholesale pharmacy system, multi-location restaurant sites and e-commerce stores. I also keep a research interest in fairness in code-generating LLMs.
Off the keyboard, I'm usually behind a camera or somewhere new. Photography and travel are how I reset.
