Experience
VerifyID
Denmark, remote- Chief Technology OfficerAug 2024 to Present
- CTO from the first commit. Built the platform the company runs on and own its hosting, deployments, staged rollouts, tests and fixes.
- Shipped the MitID and BankID checks into the shops merchants already use: a Shopify app with the check inside Shopify checkout, and plugins for WooCommerce, WordPress, PrestaShop, Wix and Magento.
- Wrote the merchant platform: onboarding, the dashboard, billing, a partner panel for resellers, the REST API and its docs at docs.verifyid.dk, TaxBridge for DAC7 reporting and the KYC flows.
- Added BankID for Sweden in 2025 and Norway in 2026, a MitID API in March 2026, and full identity checks next to the age checks.
- VerifyID was named Identity Week Europe Start-up of the Year 2026.
AMG Dynamics
Mumbai, remote- Chief Technology OfficerAug 2026 to Present
- Led and wrote the Magento and Hyvä shop rebuild for Trauringspezialisten, a German wedding ring chain: started in September 2026, live on 11 October 2026, with all 182 old URLs redirected before launch. Case study: namanbuilt.com/work/trauringspezialisten
- Moved the shop's 3D configurator out of an iframe on a separate host and into the page, on AMG's own WebGL viewer, so it ships with the shop's releases and its page makes 58 requests across 6 hosts, down from 142 across 18.
- Building A.Jaffe's new platform as the New York jeweller, founded in 1892, leaves Microsoft Dynamics 365: CAD intake, a render queue, QC, a 3D catalogue and the hand off to the ERP.
- Built JewelPrep, a Rhino plugin that turns a manufacturer's production file into a render ready model in about 35 seconds, a job that takes a designer hours. On 99 hand labelled parts it sorted every metal piece, prong and support correctly, with no false positives. Case study: namanbuilt.com/work/jewelprep
The Goldsmith AI (AMG Dynamics)
Mumbai, remote- Chief Technology OfficerAug 2025 to Present
- Built it on my own and lead its engineering: a jeweller's sketch, photo or idea becomes designs, product photos, video and 3D models, with a partner API for their own tools.
AMG Dynamics
Mumbai, remote- Technology PartnerOct 2024 to Jul 2026
- Wrote Jewelitt, AMG's WebGL jewellery viewer, and its wedding band builder, which generates every band from parameters in the browser, so the designs are effectively unlimited. Live demo: viewer-base.jewelitt.com/band.html

Horizon Beam
India, remote- FounderDec 2016 to Present
- Rebuilt the ERP of The Scientific & General Agencies, a Jaipur lab chemicals distributor, in seven weeks: sales, dispatch, GST invoicing and a double entry ledger where an invoice can't be saved if its total disagrees with its lines.
- Took Aurethia Education's exam practice portal in Jaipur live 47 days after the spec. Case study: namanbuilt.com/work/exam-practice-portal
