about

i live in India. i have a job.

i solve problems that happen at my work && get assigned to me

sometimes create new ones

then solve those too

what i actually do

at work

distributed systems

debug production

document

make apis that don’t randomly return 500s (revolutionary concept)

optimize things that were already fast enough

convinced to use kubernetes when total_user > 5

occasionally touch grass between deployments

stare Jira :(

stuff i break things with

python when i want it done

javascript when i hate myself

fastapi for apis that actually scale

docker because “works on my machine” isn’t a deployment strategy

kubernetes when docker containers get lonely

gcp when aws bills scare me

react when the backend isn’t enough suffering

go when python feels too slow (rarely)

mongodb for schema-less chaos

sql when i need actual data integrity

kafka for event streams i’ll regret later

redis for caching problems i created

prometheus to watch things break in real-time

grafana to make those breakdowns look pretty

microservices because monoliths were too simple

occasionally

write code that makes senior devs say “wait that actually works?”

ship

fix bugs that only happen in prod

pretend i understand

read documentation (ctrl+f is reading)

when not at work

chess

run

weight training

music

movies (comedy, politics, war …)

drive (only automatics)

equity markets

browse

contact

if you made it this far you’re either recruiting or procrastinating or I myself asked you to visit
