Sachin is a Senior Software Engineer who spends his days wrangling Golang, AWS, Kubernetes, and the occasional Friday deployment he immediately regrets. He’s built and scaled backend systems for teams that like their platforms fast, reliable, and (mostly) drama-free.

Over the years, he’s worked on everything from multi-tenant migrations and CI/CD pipelines that actually behave, to backend services that don’t wake him up at 3 AM. He loves clean architecture, simple solutions to messy problems, and developers who write good commit messages.

When Sachin isn't deep in code, you’ll find him experimenting with side projects, helping teammates level up, or trying (and failing) to keep his local dev environment perfectly organized.
