Hi, I'm Dakshina. I'm a Technical Lead and Product Engineer.

01 — Intro

Available for work

I'm a product engineer who has been building for the web since 2011. As a Technical Lead at Yukon Software, I own products end to end: shaping what we build and why, then building it from the interface down to the database. I work mostly in React, TypeScript, Hono and PostgreSQL, and I care about software that is fast, clear and accessible.

    Coconice

    Local-first invoicing for freelancers. Invoices live as files on your own computer, with no cloud and no account.

    Runs entirely in the browser, with no backend. Invoices are saved as real files in a folder you choose through the File System Access API, bank details are encrypted with AES-GCM using a PBKDF2-derived key, and invoices export to A4 PDF from the browser’s print dialog.
