• From building MVPs to working on large-scale Ruby on Rails apps, as a software engineer:

  • I have experience with

    • Using Packs-Rails, Sorbet, Rails engines, Elasticsearch, RabbitMQ, Redis etc.,
    • Improving performance and observability of Rails apps(using Datadog, Redash, New Relic etc.,)
    • Debugging, maintaining, refactoring & enhancing Rails apps
    • Leading projects

  • I care about(in addition to what's previously mentioned above)

    • Being product minded
    • Collaborating with different stakeholders(including members of other teams & end users) to better serve everyone

• Many people have told me communication is one of my strengths & I’d be happy to put that to good use

• There is a saying failure can teach you a lot more than success. Having worked in International teams(based in Singapore, UK and currently Germany) for almost 7 years has taught me(some the hard way) a lot about what key ingredients make great teams. I’d be happy to leverage this experience if & when needed

• I enjoy sharing my two cents when needed through pairing, coaching(to enable others to think for themselves & eventually be more independent), mentoring(I have been doing probono coaching & mentorship here for a while now), or even just being a sounding board

• Examples of Open source work and more recent code samples are present here

  • On a related note, some of my ex colleagues have also recommend my work on LinkedIn

P.S:

1. I'm open to discuss contract to full time hire roles too, however there's a current need(happy to discuss the reasons transparently over a call) for me to start work as a contractor/freelancer.

2. I have intentionally removed my contact number from my public résumé above. Happy to share it via email if needed.

3. I'm happy to share additional references as needed. If you'd like to speak to an ex colleague of mine about my work, I can also arrange the same as needed.
