Hello, I'm Chetan · Bengaluru, India

Chetan Bhosale.
Product engineer.

I work with customers, designers, and code to turn fuzzy requirements into products people can actually use. Currently a founding engineer at Linkrunner.

I started in sales.
Then I learned to ship.

My first useful product lessons came from customer calls, not a codebase. I was managing campaigns for realtors when I started building the tools they kept asking for. That move from hearing the problem to shipping the solution became the way I work.

Today I move comfortably between customer conversations, product decisions, Figma, APIs, infrastructure, and production—without losing sight of why we're building.

Linkrunner

Founding Engineer

2025 — NOW

Working directly with customers and design to shape, ship, and operate a mobile measurement platform trusted by 100+ growth teams.

  • Own the product loop with customers and design: join requirement calls, identify repeated friction, shape the scope in Figma, and carry the decision through engineering and release.
  • Rebuilt the core customer dashboard from 0 → 1 and migrated it in 20 days, using the existing product, APIs, and customer context to preserve behavior while improving the experience.
  • Own a five-platform SDK fleet across Android, iOS, React Native, Flutter, and Cordova, including the developer experience around integration and release.
  • Built an SDK console that reduced integration testing from roughly 1 hour to about 5 minutes, giving growth teams much faster feedback while implementing attribution.
  • Migrated analytics from PostgreSQL to ClickHouse, taking key queries from seconds to milliseconds and reducing infrastructure cost by as much as $8,000 per month.
  • Helped break the Node.js monolith into Go services using gRPC, WAL-backed writes, and fallbacks for systems now processing more than 25M requests each month.
  • Moved event streaming from SQS to Kafka and contributed to the wider infrastructure migration from AWS to GCP.

TransErg → Petpooja

Software Engineer

2024 — 2025

Joined TransErg LLP as a Software Engineer, then continued at Petpooja after the acquisition—turning restaurant requirements into products and production systems that held up at scale.

  • Joined TransErg LLP as a Software Engineer and continued at Petpooja after the acquisition, working inside a restaurant-tech platform serving 150K+ businesses.
  • Worked with restaurant and hotel chains to turn their ordering requirements into the Online Ordering Widget, which handled roughly 10K real food orders every day.
  • Built a domain-registry system that allowed restaurant brands to connect their own domains and run the ordering storefront as their own customer-facing website.
  • Moved services from manually managed single EC2 instances into Docker and then onto production Kubernetes with EKS, improving repeatability and operational ownership.
  • Served as DRI for Petpooja Studio, owning a library of 3M+ food images delivered to Zomato and Swiggy while coordinating specifications and SLAs with their teams.
  • Deployed a self-hosted LLM pipeline to tag, clean, and quality-check food images at scale, reducing the manual work required to operate the Studio library.

Hire My Assistants

Sales → Full-stack

2022 — 2023

Used first-hand insight from sales calls to decide what to build first, then shipped the CRM and property experiences realtors needed.

  • Managed sales and campaigns for 10 realtor clients before moving into engineering.
  • Used the pain heard on customer calls to shape an internal CRM used by more than 1,000 realtors.
  • Built high-traffic property listing pages serving roughly 100K visitors per day.
  • Prioritized the parts of the funnel customers struggled with most, then shipped those improvements first.

Side projects,
serious execution.

Small teams and sharp ideas are my favorite environment. These are products I'm designing, engineering, and pushing into the world.

Broad enough for the whole product.
Deep where it matters.

There's more
than the code.

I'm usually making music, drawing, gaming, trying a new recipe, or planning the next place to travel. Curiosity tends to spill into everything.

Martial arts has been the longest-running thread. I've won three national karate golds, which probably explains my patience for difficult systems and long debugging sessions.
