Preksha Shah - Senior Full Stack Engineer/ Tech Lead

Preksha Shah

Senior Full Stack Engineer/ Tech Lead

Hello! I’m Preksha Shah — a curious mind turned developer turned technical leader. Over the past 6+ years, I’ve gone from writing my first lines of JavaScript and PHP to guiding cross-functional teams through complex software challenges and AI-powered innovations. My work bridges intuitive design, deep tech, and smart automation using React, Next.js, Laravel, and modern ML frameworks.

My journey into AI started with a simple fascination: how can machines learn, and how can we teach them better? That spark turned into a commitment. Today, I specialize in generative AI, NLP, and prompt engineering — applying models like OpenAI,Gemini,Hugging Face, and a variety of other LLM frameworks to build meaningful, intelligent experiences that feel effortless for users.

Along the way, I’ve embraced more than just code. I’ve stepped into roles that required vision, empathy, and resilience — leading agile teams, mentoring junior developers, and translating business needs into scalable architecture. As a project manager at heart, I’ve juggled timelines, priorities, and people, always striving to deliver with clarity and accountability.

Change has been my constant. Whether adapting to new tech stacks like MERN/MEAN, diving deep into AI/ML tooling, or learning the nuances of product thinking, I thrive in motion. Tools like Jira, Trello, and Notion aren’t just task boards — they’re canvases for orchestrating momentum.

My technical toolkit spans full-stack development — building clean frontends with React/Next.js, powering backends with Node.js, Laravel,Python,CodeIgniter, and PHP, and managing data efficiently using MySQL, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL. But I believe the real magic happens when human insight meets technical precision. That’s where I lead best — architecting systems, solving high-stakes problems, and nurturing people along the way.

I’m a lifelong learner, always exploring what’s next — whether it’s the evolution of AI ethics, the future of LLMs, or how to better mentor a growing team. I enjoy taking on new tools, unfamiliar problems, and complex challenges — they stretch me, and I welcome the growth that comes with them."

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."
