I build fast, well-crafted software — from product interfaces to the systems behind them.

Software engineer in Bangalore. At Talview I've been the most active contributor to our frontend monorepo over the last year — building product UIs, offline-first data layers and embeddable apps, and leading the migration of our legacy systems to a monorepo. Outside work I ship developer tools and full-stack side projects.

And at work.

Talview is an AI-driven hiring and proctoring platform. I work in its frontend monorepo — React, TypeScript, GraphQL, and an offline-first data layer on RxDB and IndexedDB — across the candidate, operator and test-center experiences.

Shipping, every week.

Most of it is private work at Talview, so GitHub shows counts only. @tanishq-khandelwal

A developer who cares about the details.

I studied Artificial Intelligence and Data Science at D.Y. Patil College of Engineering in Pune, and spent those years shipping things: Python at a lab, product design for a Berkeley startup, and React features for an edtech company.

Today I'm a software engineer at Talview in Bangalore, where I build the proctoring, console and test-center experiences candidates and operators use every day. Outside work I build the tools I wish existed — usually small, sharp, and opinionated about what they leave out.

  1. 01

    Less, but finished

    Ship the smallest thing that fully solves the problem, then polish it until it feels obvious.

  2. 02

    Fast is a feature

    One static binary, no spinners where there needn't be any, interfaces that respond instantly.

  3. 03

    Care for the edges

    Month-end dates, dark mode, a 375px screen, a failed network call — the details are the product.
