VP of Engineering at Deriv, leading a platform team of 200+ engineers in Malaysia. I've spent the last few years figuring out what actually changes when AI enters the engineering workflow. Not the hype version — the version where your senior engineers are still the bottleneck, your code standards live in a doc nobody reads, and your juniors wait five days for a review that comes back cryptic.

What good engineering leadership actually looks like when you strip the jargon out. Substack: raunakkathuria.substack.com Building in public. No paid subscriptions. No courses yet.
