Hi, I'm Ani.
I'm a Senior Staff Engineer at Brave, working on web3 initiatives, mostly Wallet. I like building in public, and much of what I do is open source.
My seam is where strategy becomes code, and I wear the PM hat as often as the engineering one. The work I'm proudest of isn't always clever — more often small, high-leverage, and aimed at a real person on the other side of the screen.
I'm also interested in LLMs, finance, and business. I run an engineering and consulting practice through 21M Labs.
I started my career in Paris and lived there for several years before moving to Bangalore, where I'm based now.
Past lives:
- Ledger: helped secure billions of dollars.
- CERN: touched the Large Hadron Collider.
- HRI: learned that quantum mechanics is hard, and teleportation is real.
