About

Hey! I'm Ankit — a Software Engineer 💻 with 3 years of experience building scalable, cloud-based, customer-centric solutions. I graduated with a degree in Electronics & Computer Engineering👨‍🎓️ from Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology, Patiala. At WatchGuard, I’ve worked on cloud-native security platforms, helping solve complex challenges in identity and access control. Our focus on the Zero Trust Engine allowed us to deliver products that balance deep security with seamless user experience — something I deeply value. At Practo, I contributed to streamlining the surgical care journey for patients. I worked on product and operational challenges that impacted both patients and care providers, building empathy for both the end-user and the business. Over time, I've become increasingly curious not just about how products are built, but why — what problems they solve, how users interact with them, and how they can continuously evolve. This has led me to explore the intersection of engineering and product, where technology meets real-world impact. I thrive on steep learning curves, cross-functional collaboration, and working on meaningful products that make a difference. I love being at the point where engineering rigor meets customer empathy — and I’m continuously growing in that direction. Outside of work, you'll usually find me watching cricket 🏏 or football ⚽, or diving into world economics and geopolitics. Feel free to connect via LinkedIn 🙋 — I’m always up for a thoughtful conversation over coffee... or better yet, a round of skydiving! 🪂
