Deluge is the language, automation is the outcome

I'm a Certified Zoho developer based in Chennai, was working as a Senior Zoho Developer at TechWorksTalent in Chennai. My work sits across Zoho CRM,Zoho SalesIQ,Zoho Books,Zoho Creator and many Zoho Products — building custom modules, Blueprint-driven pipelines, validation logic, dashboards, and the Deluge functions that hold it all together.

Before this, I supported Deloitte's Zoho environment through Altezassys, and spent over a year at Belladonna IT as a certified CRM and Creator developer, shipping applications for clients across finance, investment banking, and asset management.

I care about the parts of a Zoho build that don't show up in a demo: clean field architecture, workflows that survive edge cases, and integrations that don't quietly fail at 3am.
