My journey as a software engineer started at IIT Kanpur, where I honed my problem-solving skills, becoming a Codeforces Candidate Master. My experience includes SDE-1 at Flipkart, impactful internship at Adobe and AstroTalk. I am currently a Quant Dev at QiCap.Ai, where I focus on optimising trading logic to microsecond level optimisations. I'm here to share my insights on navigating a tech career, competitive programming, and the interview process.
