Kalyan Vinod Prabhu

Overview

Senior Engineering Manager at Freshworks, focused on web frontends. Brought on-call pages for web down from 20 a week to 3. Cut the main bundle by 67% and got LCP under 1.1 seconds. Before that: JPMorgan Chase and Mphasis. Most at home with CSS and accessibility. Swimming before work keeps me sane.
