I didn't go to an IIT. My first job wasn't at Google. I still ended up as VP at Goldman Sachs by 28, then Staff-level at Oracle — building systems that handle millions of transactions a day.
I'm telling you that because I meet a lot of engineers who think their college or their first company is a ceiling. It's not. The decisions you make in the next 2-3 years matter far more.
Seven years in, I've worked on payment infrastructure at Paytm, trading systems at Goldman, and streaming pipelines and orchestration engines at Oracle (those are systems that coordinate hundreds of tasks running in parallel — if that phrase doesn't mean anything to you yet, it will). I've mentored engineers who were just starting out. I've been the person who made risky bets. A few of them didn't work.
Right now I use AI the way most engineers will in 2-3 years. Not just autocomplete — full agentic workflows, automated review, systems that work while I sleep. It's changed how fast I ship. I can show you exactly how it works, step by step.
Whether you're in your final year figuring out what to learn, three years in wondering if you're growing fast enough, or a senior engineer plotting your next move — come talk. No slides. No performance. Just an honest conversation.
Services
1. Mock Interview (Mock + Debrief) — 60 min | ₹1000
I'll give you a problem from systems I've actually built — not textbook examples you've seen a hundred times. Real constraints, real tradeoffs, real curveballs.
But here's the thing: the mock itself isn't where the learning happens. The 20-minute debrief after is. That's where I'll tell you exactly where your thinking broke down, what a senior engineer would have asked that you didn't, and what you need to sharpen before the real thing.
This is for you if:
You're targeting senior, staff
You've done the reading but haven't stress-tested your thinking
You want feedback that's direct, not diplomatic
2. AI-Powered Engineering — How I Ship 3x Faster — 45 min | ₹1500
Most engineers are using AI to autocomplete code. I'm using it to think, debug, review entire PRs, and build systems end to end. There's a real gap between those two. It's widening.
This isn't a workshop. I'll show you exactly how I work — the specific patterns I use every day that save me hours. You'll leave with something you can set up the same afternoon.
Any experience level. If you're a junior who wants to build the right habits before the wrong ones stick, this is especially worth your time.
My real workflow, not a cleaned-up demo
The 3-4 patterns that do most of the work
What I've learned NOT to automate (this trips people up)
3. Career Clarity Call — 30 min | ₹800
No IIT. No FAANG. Still made VP at Goldman by 28.
I'm not saying anything is possible with hard work. I'm saying the path wasn't obvious, and I had to figure out a lot of it myself. I'd have paid real money for 30 minutes with someone who could just tell me the truth.
That's what this is.
Who books this:
Final year students picking between offers (or figuring out what to target)
Juniors who aren't sure what to learn next
Mid-level engineers wondering if they're on track for senior
Senior engineers eyeing Staff or a domain switch
Anyone thinking about switching companies and not sure when
I'll be honest with you, even when it's not what you want to hear.
4. "I'm Stuck" Emergency Call — 20 min | ₹500
For when you need to think something through this week, not next month.
Offer negotiation happening right now and you don't know the number to ask for. Got rejected and genuinely don't know why. Choosing between two offers and going in circles. Interview in two days and something specific is worrying you.
Twenty minutes, one problem, clear next step. That's it.
5. Resume Review (Async, 30 min) | ₹500
Your resume should read like a highlight reel, not a job description. Most don't.
Send me your resume. I'll rewrite your top 3 bullets so you can see the difference immediately — not just feedback, an actual rewrite. Then I'll leave specific notes on the rest.
Works for fresh grads writing their first one AND for 8-year engineers whose resume still sounds like a list of responsibilities.
