About

With over 11 years of experience, I specialize in building high-quality, scalable applications. I bridge the gap between traditional full-stack engineering and the new wave of AI Engineering. The Stack: Core: React, TypeScript, Redux/Zustand, Node.js Microservices. Data & Streaming: Kafka, Kinesis, MongoDB, Redis. Generative AI: Building RAG pipelines, implementing Agentic AI workflows, and utilizing LLM function calling. I love hacking on weekends and documenting the process. I’m currently deep-diving into AI certifications and building POCs to push the boundaries of what web apps can do. 🎥 YouTube: https://youtube.com/codesketched 📄 Technical Writing: https://blog.logrocket.com/author/kapeelkokane/ Follow for witty, sarcastic takes on tech, common sense coding advice, and my journey into AI.
