Actively involved in technical pre-sales — translating client requirements into architecture proposals, effort estimations, team composition plans, and phased delivery roadmaps that inform commercial decisions and set project foundations.

Scope of Activities

• Led technical discovery sessions with prospective clients — understanding existing systems, pain points, and desired outcomes to shape solution proposals.
• Produced detailed effort estimations covering infrastructure, application development, data migration, integrations, QA, and DevOps — broken down by phase and role.
• Designed high-level architecture diagrams and technology recommendations tailored to client constraints (budget, compliance, existing stack, team maturity).
• Defined team composition and ramp-up plans — mapping skill requirements to delivery phases with clear handoff points.
• Collaborated with business development and delivery leadership to refine proposals, adjust scope, and align technical feasibility with commercial targets.
• Evaluated build-vs-buy decisions for key components — recommending managed services, third-party integrations, or custom development based on ROI analysis.
• Created phased delivery roadmaps with milestone definitions, dependency mapping, and risk identification for client-facing presentations.

Domains Covered

Estimation Dimensions

A centralized, WCAG 2.1-compliant digital platform connecting Persons with Disabilities (PwDs), caregivers, employers, and AT/AD vendors — designed to improve accessibility, awareness, and informed decision-making around assistive technology at scale.

Architectural Contributions

• Architected a multi-role access model covering PwD users, employers, caregivers, vendors, AT partners, and administrators — with role-based permissions, vendor approval workflows, and content moderation capabilities.
• Designed an AI-powered device matching engine delivering personalized AT/AD recommendations based on disability profile, severity, occupational needs, and lifestyle context — with suitability-ranked output of top 5–10 devices per user.
• Architected a Vendor & Distributor Portal with full product lifecycle management, multi-image uploads, optional 3D mockup support, and location-based provider discovery.
• Defined DPDP Act compliance, API-ready interoperability (LMS, eCommerce, CRM), and multilingual support (Hindi, English + 2 regional languages) as core architectural constraints.
• Scoped future roadmap including eCommerce module, micro-entrepreneurship reseller onboarding, analytics dashboards for NGOs and policymakers, and an embedded LMS for device usage training.

Architectural Decisions

Key NFRs

Architected two platform-level microservices for CredAble — a centralized Template Management System (TMS) and a generic Scheduler Service — both designed for reuse across multiple products within CredAble's ecosystem without duplication of infrastructure.

Template Management System (TMS)

• Designed TMS as a standalone microservice with an embedded Micro Frontend (Micro-FE) — enabling centralized template storage with decentralized, per-product usage across Email, SMS, WhatsApp, In-App Banner, and Document channels.
• Defined REST API contracts for template retrieval by Template ID and Application Code, supporting dynamic content population via FreeMarker/Thymeleaf templating with a WYSIWYG authoring experience and real-time preview.
• Architected the In-App Documentation Configuration module with role-based document applicability (Buyer, Supplier, Both), configurable trigger instances, delivery mode selection, and digital signing method integration (OTP, DIGIO, Clickwrap, Wet Signature).

Scheduler Service

• Architected a centralized, reusable scheduling engine supporting both time-triggered and event-driven task execution across products — eliminating the need for per-product scheduling infrastructure.
• Designed for modularity and independent deployability, with clear separation of scheduling concerns from business logic execution.
