About

Hi, I am Aena! Currently a Software Engineer at PayPal. Previously, I was a part of Flipkart’s CI/CD platform team. I enjoy building scalable backend systems and solving infrastructure problems that improve engineering productivity. Having grown up in a family where we had to relocate every few years, I studied in schools across different cities, which made adapting to new environments and learning quickly, my second nature. I’m driven by ownership, thoughtful system design, building things that scale and, of course, Badminton!
