# Ayush Kumar > Engineering Lead Location: United States, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/ayushkumar I operate at the intersection of hands-on engineering and team leadership. I currently lead delivery for a small but growing engineering team building client-facing digital platforms within a large organization, staying closely involved in backend architecture and system design while helping shape the processes and structures that support long-term growth. My background spans backend systems, data modeling, and full-stack collaboration. I regularly work across product, design, and business partners to turn ambiguous problems into practical, durable solutions. Earlier in my career, I worked in customer-facing and business roles before transitioning fully into engineering. That experience continues to shape how I approach technical decisions — grounding system design in operational realities and measurable outcomes. More recently, I’ve been thinking intentionally about how teams build — including how AI can responsibly augment engineering workflows without sacrificing clarity, quality, or judgment. ## Work Experience ### Engineering Lead @ NVA General Practice Jan 2024 – Present | San Francisco Bay Area Leading the engineering team responsible for the PetOne Vet client platform (web & mobile). ### Senior Software Engineer @ NVA General Practice Jan 2023 – Jan 2024 Joined as the founding engineer for a new client-facing digital platform initiative.
