I'm a Backend Engineer focused on building reliable production systems with Python, Rust and AWS.
I've been contributing to open source for 5+ years, primarily with Oppia, where I've contributed code, reviewed PRs and mentored contributors. I was a Google Summer of Code contributor in 2022 and later returned as a mentor.
I'm currently learning system design, distributed systems and AI engineering — and sharing the journey publicly.

Build first. Learn while building. Share what you learn.
I don't believe there is one perfect roadmap for becoming an engineer. Your learning path should serve the problems you want to solve.
