I’m a non-CS engineer who began in manual testing and transitioned into backend engineering by building strong fundamentals and hands-on project experience. I currently work in a product-based company with deep experience in Spring Boot, AWS, microservices, and Generative AI. Having personally cracked the QA-to-developer transition, I help engineers from non-CS or QA backgrounds prepare for backend interviews, identify skill gaps, and align their learning with product-company expectations.
