About

From embedded systems to enterprise platforms

My journey started programming microcontrollers for Bosch and TVS. Today, I lead teams building healthcare analytics platforms used by hundreds of professionals globally.

I care deeply about craft—clean architecture, proper abstractions, and systems that don't break at 2 AM. Equally passionate about helping engineers grow from writing code to thinking in systems.
