About

I’m a Full Stack Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience in building scalable, high-performance systems at top product companies like Salesforce, Paytm, Tesco, and Target. But more than titles, what defines me is where I come from — a modest background, a family with no history in tech or even higher education. From a small town to NIT Trichy (MCA), and from there to working in companies where I once thought I’d never belong — this is the journey I want to share. I create content to: Help students from Tier 2/3/4 colleges believe they belong in tech Motivate job switchers and self-doubters to push through Share tech learnings, career advice, and real talk from inside the industry On the tech side, I specialize in: 1. Java • Spring Boot • Microservices 2. Event-driven architecture (Kafka) 3. PostgreSQL • Oracle • Elasticsearch • Neo4j 4. React • Redux • Node.js 5. DevOps for scalable systems in retail and e-commerce Let’s connect — whether you're just starting out, switching paths, or looking for direction in tech.
