Software engineer at MakeMyTripBased out of Bengaluru, IndiaPreviously PwC and Zolo

Aadarsh Srivastava

I build clear product systems around how people actually work.

Across enterprise software, startup operations, and consumer travel, I turn messy workflows into useful interfaces and durable systems.

What breaks
Software fragments when features become the plan and the work around them disappears from view.

01 · Product range
Enterprise coordination, startup operations, and consumer travel at scale.
03 · Working bias
Start with the workflow, keep useful complexity, then choose the system shape.

Different scales changed what I notice: shared systems must survive coordination, operational products must respect the work around the screen, and consumer journeys must stay clear under scale.

From exposure to work
Those environments changed what I build on my own: products that begin with a specific person and the work already happening around them.
