hey, i'm rohan ๐Ÿ‘‹

i just build.

backend is where i get my thrill. designing the system, picking the architecture, making sure the thing doesn't fall over at 3am. that part is mine. the frontend is just so people can see it.

right now that means a GitHub app that notices when a vendor API drifts and opens the fix as a PR, so nobody has to fix code that wasn't broken yesterday. it watches 6+ vendors already, anthropic, openai, stripe, resend and slack among them.

i genuinely like helping people out and meeting people who are building things. if you're working on something interesting, or weird enough to be interesting, email me. no pitch needed.

now

before

how i build

python on the backend, postgres underneath, react on top, shipped end to end.

architecture my strongest card
system designrest apisdatabase design

drawing the boxes, deciding what talks to what, getting the schema right before any code exists.

backend
pythonfastapijava

fastapi for nearly everything. java when the job calls for it. boring, predictable apis over clever ones.

data
postgresqlschema designmigrations

postgres, always. real constraints, proper indexes, migrations nobody fears.

ship it fast, but never sloppy
dockerci/cdawsfly.iovercelfirebase

first commit to production, start to finish. when i'm locked in, things ship early. tested, though.

frontend
reacttailwindswiftiosmacos

react and tailwind on the web. swift for iphone and mac, shipped both. kept simple on purpose.

projects

side quests

huntingthe outdoors kind. patience is the whole game.
golfing still bad at itstill going though.
researching stuff the best part of merabbit holes on whatever i don't understand yet. i notice the small stuff other people skip, and that's usually where the answer is.
ex-esports red bull daysplayed in red bull tournaments. loved the grind of competing. same energy, different game now.
currently obsessed withself-maintaining apis. code that fixes itself when the world changes around it.

say hi
