Hey, I am Priyankar. I build backends and AI systems. Mostly the unglamorous parts like billing, auth, APIs, workers and RAG pipelines. The kind of stuff that has to keep working when traffic spikes and webhooks retry.
I mostly use Python, Go and TypeScript with Postgres, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes and AWS. I like small teams and clear specs. When I am not shipping, I am at the gym.
My philosophy is simple. Boring software wins. Small pieces, honest errors, and nothing clever that the next person cannot understand. If it breaks at 2am, it should tell you exactly why.
