Rithik Chopra — Software Engineer
I started as a Chemical Engineer but found my real momentum in software engineering. Over the last few years, I’ve worked across large-scale backend systems, deployment pipelines, and reliability engineering, first at Cisco and now at Atlassian. I enjoy building things that solve real problems, which naturally pulled me toward AI and automation. Along the way, I’ve secured three 1st Runner-up finishes in national-level hackathons (Google Agentic AI, Snowflake, and SuperOps), competing against thousands of developers. My interests today include backend architecture, LLM systems, agentic workflows, and product engineering that scales. I like taking complex systems apart, understanding how they work, and making them faster, cleaner, and more reliable. Always learning. Always building.
