He builds production systems across Rails, React, Python, PostgreSQL, AI/LLM infrastructure, cloud services, and self-hosted environments, working directly with operations on payroll, financial workflows, dispatch, customer communications, and internal tools. Jeevan’s strengths span full-stack engineering, distributed systems, product delivery, AI model evaluation, GPU-constrained inference optimization, system design, and translating ambiguous operational requirements into reliable software. At Xecutive Development, Jeevan has delivered a multi-state operator portal, a payroll settlement engine that has settled more than $306,000 across 47 operators and 10,444 service stops, and an email platform handling more than 10,000 messages per day. He also built self-hosted LLM inference and agent systems, including model evaluation that prevented a payroll-value fabrication from reaching production. Previously, Jeevan led AI voice and high-volume messaging initiatives at ReplyQuick AI, built cloud-native volunteer-matching software at Saayam For All, managed recruiting-product delivery at Klimb, and co-founded Shri Maruthi Enterprise, which grew to roughly $2 million in annual revenue. He holds a master’s degree in Management Information Systems from California State University and a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from Visvesvaraya Technological University. ## Services -

This is where the pattern started. I didn't know the industry. I learned it, then built the systems it needed to run. ✔ Built the digital inventory, billing and reporting systems the business operated on, cutting stock-outs by 35% ✔ Owned pricing and credit modelling for enterprise supply customers, and the logistics serving them ✔ Ran cross-functional teams across sales, compliance and operations ✔ Made the operating calls with real money behind them, from stock positions to credit terms For US readers: Indian fuel retailers earn margin on the volume they sell, which makes inventory, pricing and credit the core of the business. The US model works differently, with the fuel company retaining ownership and the operator running the store. Still operating today under family management. #Operations #SupplyChain #Analytics #Entrepreneurship ## Education - Bachelor's Degree, Computer Engineering — Visvesvaraya Technological University - Master's Degree, Management Information Systems, General — California State University ## FAQ ### What does Jeevan do?
