About

I’m a Software Engineer at Couchbase, where I work on building reliable and high-performance internal systems. Previously, I was a Full Stack Developer at Zus Networks, where I worked across different applications and learned how to ship products end to end. I graduated from Vellore Institute of Technology with a degree in Computer Science and a CGPA of 8.95/10. During my time there, I developed a strong understanding of computer networks, operating systems, and database management systems. I’m deeply interested in Database Internals, Systems Engineering, Debugging, Problem Solving, and System Design. I enjoy getting to the root of technical issues and understanding how systems work behind the scenes. I mainly work with Golang, TypeScript, and Python, and I love building things that are efficient, scalable, and maintainable.
