— About

Savan Padaliya

Twelve years building production e-commerce, SaaS, and AI-driven systems. Started as a web developer in Ahmedabad, became a Magento specialist, then a senior engineer, then a CTO. In 2022, I went independent.

I work with companies who have real engineering problems — not proof-of-concepts, not small features, but the difficult systems work that requires genuine depth and accumulated experience. Magento platforms, cloud infrastructure, integration architecture, and AI-driven backend systems. Currently based in Ahmedabad, working with clients across India, the UK, and South Africa.
