Three years deep in software engineering, building from Hyderabad to wherever the internet takes me. I have built full-stack systems for NGOs, shipped Go microservices, and designed production-grade backends handling async queues, Redis caching and secure authentication at scale.

My process is architecture-first. I want to understand the system constraints and trade-offs before I write a single line of code. But I also care about what the user sees at the end of it.

I own the full stack when needed, from database schema to deployed API to React frontend. My center of gravity is backend engineering but I am comfortable enough on the frontend to ship end-to-end without waiting on someone else.

When I am not building, I am reading about how other engineers built things and why they made the decisions they did. That curiosity is what pushes me to go deeper than the tutorial, question the defaults, and treat every system I touch as something worth doing properly.
