About

SDE2 @ Razorpay, working on scalable systems built with Go, gRPC, AWS, and relational databases. My journey into tech began with curiosity that led me to join Razorpay right after high school. I’m passionate about writing clean, performant systems, understanding product impact, and sharing what I learn along the way. My current focus is on deep system design, distributed systems, and mentoring through tech content that bridges real-world backend engineering and learning. Always curious. Always building.
