Open to Technical Lead & founding engineer roles

Hi, I'm Abhi.
I build ERP & SaaS products that businesses run on.

Senior Full Stack & Backend Engineer, Technical Lead and founder of Portabill. 10+ years taking products from UI and API design to cloud, CI/CD and production — from Kerala, for teams in India and the Gulf.

What I do

One engineer for the whole stack.

From the first workflow map to monitoring in production — so nothing gets lost between design, code and deployment.

Custom ERP systems

Inventory, sales, rentals, accounts and reporting — modelled on how the business really runs.

Backend & APIs

Node.js and TypeScript services, REST and GraphQL, OAuth2/JWT, event-driven systems on Kafka.

Full-stack product

Vue.js frontends, dashboards and mobile-ready flows, built and owned end to end.

Cloud & DevOps

AWS and Azure, Docker, Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines that make shipping boring.

AI & automation

LLM integrations, WhatsApp automation and agentic workflows wired into real business data.

Concept · ERP + AI Virtual Staff

Your ERP, now conversational.

An optional AI layer for any Portabill system. It answers from live ERP data, surfaces records and prepares actions — permission-aware, and only through workflows the business approves.

Which retailers are overdue this month?

12 retailers have pending dues. 3 payments are past 30 days — want me to draft reminders?

Yes, send to the overdue accounts.

About

I like owning the whole product — and seeing people actually use it.

I started building client websites in 2015 and have since worked across India, Dubai and Saudi Arabia on everything from e-commerce to enterprise cloud platforms and multi-tenant SaaS.

Whether I'm leading a team or shipping solo as a founding engineer, I care about systems that are simple to run and easy to maintain. These days I lean on AI-assisted development and automation to move faster without cutting corners.
