Govind Gupta

I'm a senior full-stack architect with 15 years of experience shipping production systems across India and the USA. I specialize in building MVPs for startups and complex web applications for enterprises.

What I Do Best

I turn ideas into working products fast. While most developers take 2-3 months to build an MVP, I deliver in 2-3 weeks. This speed comes from two things: 15 years of knowing what corners can be cut (and which ones can't), and AI-augmented development workflows that multiply my output without sacrificing quality.

My core stack is Next.js 14, React, TypeScript, Node.js, Supabase, PostgreSQL, and Stripe. I chose this stack specifically because it's what AI tools understand deeply, which means faster development, fewer bugs, and cleaner code.

What I've Built

I've shipped products across fintech, insurance, telecom, and blockchain:

A real-time network management dashboard processing 50,000+ daily operations for a wireless infrastructure company. Built the MVP in 4 months, still running in production today.

An insurance comparison platform that scaled to 10,000+ users in 8 months. I reduced quote generation time from 45 seconds to 3 seconds by finding a single database optimization others had missed.

A production blockchain DApp on Ethereum with smart contracts handling $100,000+ in transactions.

Enterprise HR systems at ADP used by millions of employees across the United States.

Companies I've worked with include Ericsson, ADP, Time Warner Cable, Tarana Wireless, and Turtlemint.

How I Work

I'm based in Pune, India (IST timezone) and available for 20 hours per week. I overlap well with US East Coast mornings and European afternoons.

I communicate clearly and frequently. You'll never wonder what's happening with your project. I send regular updates, ask questions early, and flag risks before they become problems.

I'm not the cheapest option, and I'm not trying to be. I'm the option for founders and CTOs who need senior-level judgment, fast execution, and code that doesn't need to be rewritten in 6 months.

What I'm Looking For

I work best on:

• MVP development for early-stage startups ($5K-$12K projects)

• Full-stack web applications with payment integrations

• Architecture reviews and technical consulting

• Fractional CTO engagements for teams without a technical co-founder

If you need someone who can take a product from idea to production without hand-holding, let's talk.
