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

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”
