Hi. I'm Vishal Tiwari 🤟@vishal.dev

Vishal Tiwari

Short Bio

I'm a product maker (... and full stack engineer) currently based in India. I work across the whole stack handling everything from architecture and design to development, testing, and deployment. I'm also a big fan of open source software , which is why almost everything I build is open source!
I mainly write code in TypeScript, Rust, and Solidity.

Career

I got my start during my first year of college at the age of 18, working with a freelance client based in Sweden. I built their entire platform from scratch—handling all the user portals, admin panels, and internal dashboards. That process completely got me hooked on making products, launching them, and iterating fast.

Since then, I've been focusing on building my own startups and products. I founded buddy2buddy (a companion marketplace), developed senriai (an interview prep platform), and started Zero Layer Labs to build RWA frameworks and decentralized tech.

I've won several hackathons, developer contests, and technical bounties as well.

Kind words

❤️

I’ve worked with Vishal on multiple projects, and one thing that stands out is his ability to actually build and ship full-stack products instead of just talking about ideas. He has strong hands-on skills across frontend, backend, databases, APIs, and system integration, but what separates him from many developers is his deep involvement in Web3 and blockchain-based application development. Any team looking for someone who can contribute across both traditional full-stack engineering and modern Web3 ecosystems would find him valuable.
